Northern Latitude 60.20890

The Arabia Art Department Society’s 20th anniversary exhibition, Northern Latitude 60.20890, is featuring Finnish contemporary ceramics, curated by the New York gallery owners Juliet Burrows and Kim Hostler. The coordinates of the exhibition lead to the Iittala & Arabia Design Centre in Helsinki’s Arabia district, where the Arabia Art Department is located.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the founding of the Arabia Art Department Society on 4 November 2003. The Society was founded to preserve and develop the legacy of the Arabia Art Department, which was established in the 1930s. 

The society’s 20-year story is celebrated in 2023 in various ways, and the society’s artists, including Professor Heikki Orvola, Kati Tuominen-Niittylä, Pekka Paikkari, Kristina Riska, Heini Riitahuhta, Kim Simonsson, Jasmin Anoschkin, Caroline Slotte, Sakari Kannosto, and Marianne Huotari, are participating in the anniversary year.
