In line with our feature on Finnish animation, we would like to open by introducing a background to Finnish animation. Emerging as independent from the control of Sweden and Russia, and establishing a democracy with the historical pillars of nature, welfare, culture and education, we would like to introduce some photographs and diagrams depicting Finnish life. There will also be screenings of Finnish animation in the hall.

An exhibition by International July member Mr. Rastko Ćirić. He exhibits illustrations, trademarks, graphic prints and typeface designs selected from the book “MISCELLENIA”, which contains his work drawn from childhood to 50 years old, so as to preserve a panoramic view of his works. It is an enjoyable exhibition that consists of witty and humorous illustrations such as furniture made of skeletons and internal organs directly connected to a toilet bowl. You can enjoy 3D stereoscopic illustrations and animation film shows, too.

Sixty sheets of paper are displayed on both the right side wall and left side wall. There are vague orange images on each of the sheets of paper. The exhibition room is displayed with flowers and filled with their scent. On the wall at the end of the room, an X-ray photo of a chest is displayed, and an animation film made of orange stained sheets is playing on a DVD monitor.
Actually “Papirosy” means cigarette in Polish. The orange color on the paper represents the stains from cigarette smoke. Alder himself used rolling paper and rolling tobacco when he smoked cigarettes. He says that the passing of time and what he had experienced and felt were frozen in the color orange at that time. The X-ray photo taken last summer is of his lungs. He was diagnosed by his doctor as being completely healthy, although he was a heavy smoker.
