The Art and Occupation of Stage Design in Finnish Theatres
This study explores the formation, establishment, expansion, and disintegration of stage design as a modern profession and a recognized artform in Finnish theatres. Drawing on oral or written recollections and thoughts of stage designers from different decades, the author asks how their artistic agencies, occupational identities, and theoretical self-understanding have been constituted. She analyses Finnish theatre history from new perspectives by shifting the focus from finished performances to largely unknown practices behind the scenes. This book examines the cultural institutions that have constituted the stage designers’ role and position, like the professional city theatre system, th...
Värit havaintojen maailmassa
Syväsukellus väreihin Ihminen kykenee aistimaan värejä – mutta mikä tuottaa värit? Onko väri enemmän maailman vai havaitsijan ominaisuus? Miten voimme ymmärtää värejä? Kokemusten sanoiksi pukeminen on vaikeaa, sillä värit ovat pitkälti esiverbaalinen, tietoisuuden ohi vaikuttava ilmiö. Opettamiseen, opiskeluun ja ammatilliseen työhön kuuluu kuitenkin visuaalisten kokemusten muuttaminen sanoiksi. Kirja auttaa ymmärtämään värejä syvällisesti paneutumalla terminologiaan ja käsitteisiin sekä avaamalla väreihin liittyviä ilmiöitä. Värit havaintojen maailmassa sopii värin oppikirjaksi kuvataiteen, graafisen suunnittelun, muotoilun, arkkitehtuurin ja muiden visuaalisten alojen opintoihin sekä kaikille aiheesta kiinnostuneille. Klassikkoteoksen uudistettu laitos sisältää runsaasti uutta ja syvennettyä tietoa. Sanasto selventää värisanojen ja termien merkityksiä ja laaja kirjallisuusluettelo vie tiedon lähteille. Tehtävät auttavat lukijaa tekemään aihetta syventäviä tutkimuksia. Kirja innostaa tekemään havaintoja ja löytöjä värien kiehtovassa maailmassa!

Historical Dictionary of Scandinavian Cinema
Although relatively small, the northern countries of Scandinavia have made a disproportionately large contribution to world cinema. Indeed, some of their films are among the best known of all times, including The Seventh Seal, Dancer in the Dark, and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. And Scandinavian directors are also among the best known, just to mention Ingmar Bergman and Lars von Trier. But there is much more to the cinema of Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland than that, and this book shows us what they have been accomplishing over more than a century from the beginnings of cinema until the present. The Historical Dictionary of Scandinavian Cinema shows just how long and busy th...

Nordic Design Cultures in Transformation, 1960–1980
Covering the 1960s and 1970s, this volume explores new ways of investigating, comparing and interpreting the different domains of design culture across the Nordic countries. Challenging the traditional narrative, this volume argues that the roots of the most prominent features of Nordic design’s contemporary significance are not to be found amongst the objects for the home collectively branded as ‘Scandinavian Design’ to great acclaim in the 1950s, but in the discourses, institutions and practices formed in the aftermath of that oft-told success story, during the turbulent period between 1960 and 1980. This is achieved by employing multidisciplinary approaches to connect the domains of...
Fashioned in the North
This edited volume showcases new examples - previously untold stories of images, photographers, publications, and institutions - partly unknown outside the Nordic countries. The authors examine the reasons for and implications of this underexposure, taking on a photographic metaphor. While simultaneously challenging previously taken-for-granted ideas of the center and periphery in this field, the book also widens the study of fashion photography. Notably, the hybridity of approaches may enrich future studies of fashion photography. In Fashioned in the North, fashion photography is viewed as a transnational phenomenon and a material object, as well as a medium that is part of a media system and a result of archival systems and history writings. Furthermore, the book displays how studies of fashion photography can be so much more than stories of a few names and iconic images or studies of individual and periodic style. Indeed, the study of fashion photography may be a prism through which we can uncover cultural, social, economic, and ideological aspects of society at present and in the past.
Chintrepreneurship or Shanzhai Model
Theoretically, the formational and developmental mechanism of Shanzhai Model (the Chintrepreneurship, the China-way of Doing Business) theorized in this text, in addition to complying with the traditionally Western dominated frameworks of risk-taking-oriented, technology-oriented, resource-oriented, and speculation-oriented – also creates the peculiar or updated characteristics, complementary and supplementary to the existing theories of entrepreneurship and strategic management. The peculiar characteristics of Shanzhai Model may be attributed to the government policy guidance, from macroeconomic level, to technology development level, and to market expansion level, through the regulated c...
