Product description
Pauli VUORISALO. Mixed media on canvas, monogrammed lower right and dated 1970. Countersigned on reverse and titled. Slightly missing. Format 103 x 76cm Pauli Vuorisalo, born in Kankaanpää on April 16, 1944, was a precocious artist. At the age of 16, he made his first appearance in a joint exhibition in Pori and, at twenty, founded the Kankaanpää art school. Vuorisalo was known as a versatile visual artist who used many techniques throughout his career. He believed that every thought and event found its own natural form. Vuorisalo produced drawings, graphics, gouaches, ceramics, glass and textile art. He has also written poetry. Vuorisalo, from Satakunta, was interested in the Finnish design industry. In the mid-1980s, he was a guest artist in Arabia, creating a collection of fabric designs for Marimekko and, a little later, a series of glass vases for Iittala. Vuorisalo considered himself a representative of the so-called Parisian school. He studied in France from 1969 to 1974. Vuorisalo says he escaped the narrow-mindedness of the Finnish art world by going to Paris. The artist loved theater and was often seen at social events sharing his stories. The last exhibition took place at the Kulttuurikeskus Sofia in Helsinki in 2012. Vuorisalo died of cancer at the age of 73 in Helsinki's Haartman Hospital on December 21. The disease was diagnosed only a week before his death.
