JUSSI NIVA
September 1 - October 1, 2000

The artist's CV.

Ten oil paintings on plywood from 1999 and this year are exhibited in the opening exhibition of Ama Gallery. Niva's most recent paintings are probably more paintings than ever with visible brush strokes and richness of paint. The light is an essential part of the works and it is caught extraordinarily by the bent wooden surface covered with several layers of paint.

The pride of the gallery is a site specific work made by Jussi Niva just before the gallery opening, a silvery painting which makes the light flow from upstairs through a "floor window" to downstairs like a water fall.

Further down this page you will find some paintings from the exhibition. 

If you wish to order the exhibition catalogue (FIM 100, postage included) introducing a wide collection of the works of the Expose series 1996-2000 with the introduction of Timo Valjakka, the director of Helsinki Kunsthalle, please mail your order to galleria@amagallery.net with your contact information.
