Sunday Salon pays homage to Louise Bourgeois' Spiders and Sunday Salons, which she organized in her New York home for nearly thirty years.
The salons were open to all - if you brought your own work to the conversation and a good whisky or chocolate.

In the joint exhibition Spiderwomen by Niina Lehtonen Braun, Mirka Raito and Miia Rinne,
the works and themes are linked like a never-ending story or a constantly reweaving web.
On the last Sunday, Louise's spirit waves a knee-high foot under the table, and Venus offers her own gifts and is reborn.

At 14:00, Mirka Raito's Under Your Skin performance begins, combining for the first time with sounds by the Gnomes of the Black Lodge (K.Mustonen).
Kalle Mustonen's Monkey and a Machine installation is on display at Gallery Fikka. It is an automaton, a clockwork. It is a soundsystem and a meditative space.
Under Your Skin performance duration about 30 min.

*The Venus is here. She is filled and her body is open.
I crawl under her skin. I am stronger. I drink wine and milk.
She eats yeast, chocolate and liquorice and laughs out loud.
I pass out and she's been asleep for 30,000 years. It's drunken love.*
A warm welcome!
