Eija-Liisa Ahtila
The Finnish artist, Eija-Liisa Ahtila (b. 1959), first came to prominence in the early 1990s.
Her work, which can be presented equally in a cinema, on television or in a gallery context, deals with the theme of
human relationships - between families, lovers, genders - by way of narrative that is drawn from the artist's own
experiences and observations.
This exhibition, featuring video, film, photography and installation, will be the first major survey of Ahtila's work in this
country.
It will include a number of key works from the past ten years, such as the astonishing Me/We, Okay and
Gray 1993, three short films originally made for broadcast between mainstream television programmes in
Finland.
Exhibiting at:
