The exhibition 13 Stories about Humane Design presents 13 architectural works by Alvar Aalto that are currently nominated for inclusion on the UNESCO World Heritage List. For the exhibition, writer Sanna Puutonen has written 13 fictional stories from the perspectives of the people who use and experience these buildings.
At the event, the author Sanna Puutonen and the Director of Urban Planning and Land Use Leena Rossi will discuss architecture and literature: how both art forms create spaces and atmospheres for people to experience. They will reflect on the aims of building design and architecture, and how these buildings by Aalto reflect their own time. The discussion will also explore the kinds of ideas and visions a city may have — even dreams of creating paradises (in Aalto’s words) for people to experience and inhabit. In addition, it will consider how the architecture of Jyväskylä reflects different periods in society. The event will be held in Finnish.

12 PM – 3 PM | Rally Finland – 75 Years of Gravel, Heroes, and a Travelling Circus

The event is also part of the program for the opening weekend of the fall season on Jyväskylä’s Art Street.
