Sumu, adjacent to the Gallery Titanik, functions primarily as a studio and exhibition space for the artist-in-residence. At other times there will be exhibitions in the room. Artists can apply for exhibition with a separate application form, and the exhibition slots will be determined by the residency schedule. If no free exhibition slots remain, the room will be in constant residency use.

Wood Workshop at Gallery Titanik from June 19th to July 16th 2006, and
Kevyesti (Lightly) –exhibition on the street Itäinen Rantakatu from 1st to 30th of July 2006

The artists’ association Arte will organise a wood workshop for wood carvers, woodcut artists and all artists interested in, and familiar with, both techniques.
The event is planned by printmaker Sirkku Ketola (member of Arte and of the Turku Printmakers’ Association) and the sculptors Timo O. Nenonen, Suvi Saarainen (member of Arte) and Juha Welling.

The wood workshop will start on Monday, June 19th 2006, and continue until Sunday, 16th of July 2006. In the workshop the participating artists will create art works for the exhibition “Kevyesti” (Lightly) that will take over the trees and pavements of Itäinen Rantakatu, the street on which Gallery Titanik lies. The exhibition opens on the 1st of July 2006, and will expand and reshape itself constantly until the end of the workshop. The theme of the exhibition is wood, which means that the works exhibited will be made of wood. In the case of printmakers, for example, the exhibited works will be the woodblocks used to make prints.
