September 19, 2007 by adminThe makers of Madventures TV serie are doing a new short film called Monto Rosso (link in Finnish). Movie will be released during the spring 2008. I just noticed Madventures DVD’s are subtitled in English, but I guess much of the spirit is lost while it’s translated. Spoken stadi slang is the thing

Pimp your paintings
September 17, 2007 by adminFew days ago I went to see artist Jani Leinonen’s Taidetuunamo (art tuning carage) in front of museum of contemporary art Kiasma. Excellent idea: bring your crappy paintings and Jani will pimp your paintings I only got disappointed, when I noticed someone else was doing the “pimping”. Maybe Jani just creates the ideas & signs masterpieces? Anyway, go and see the exhibition!
