Love and poetry - the artists were inspired by the passion conveyed by the university's research

June 06, 2023

Engineering Materials, the art collection of the three buildings located at Aalto University's campus in Otaniemi, was published as part of the university's public art seminar on 30 May 2023. The K1, K2 and K3 buildings (Otakaari 4, Puumiehenkuja 3 and Puumiehenkuja 5) have new commissioned works from a total of eight artists. The collection was compiled through direct purchases and two art competitions organised by Aalto University. In January 2022, Aalto University announced two public art competitions, which sought exceptional and feasible work proposals for the premises of the block under construction at the time. Both competitions focused on the university community's desire to bring more light art to the Otaniemi campus area.
