The Story of Beginning
2020-

The artist group Parazit from St.Petersburg and Galleria Huuto started a co-operation project in October 2020. The project was planned to result in a book and two exhibitions where 43 artists from Finland and Russia take part in.

The working name for the project is “The Story of Beginning”. It is a collection of thoughts about beginning realised by different artists, following each other in a chain, like a cartoon. The chain was to be composed into an art book and two multimedial exhibitions, both in Helsinki and in St.Petersburg.

The chain was interrupted by the Russian war. At the moment we don’t know where it will end up, but we maybe continue the dialog somehow.
