Design in Helsinki Films
The exhibition reveals the visual imagery of films shot in Helsinki between the 1930s and the 1960s. Design and architecture had a huge impact in the visual imagery of films, as they allowed the creation of different urban atmospheres. Designer clothes for films, made-up homes and environments commented on the prevailing reality, exaggerated contemporary phenomena and peeked into the future through imagination. Helsinki City Museum 15.2.2012-13.1.2013.
