Anne Koskinen
1969
Helsinki
Helsinki
Recurring themes in my work are the demand for artistic
originality and the problem of original and copy. For example,
in 1998 I showed sculptures made of works by other artists.
As my point of departure I took the visual and the haptic, on
the one hand, and the concepts of the original and the copy, on
the other. Through the medium of sculpture, the visual
becomes haptic, the painting a sculpture. In general, my works
call into question the representativeness of images. The
process of creating the works is also an important part of the
meaning and it can also be seen as a performance as in the
exhibition Autoportraits – A Valedictorian Burnishing Her
Image (2001). The series DEUS PROTECTOR NOSTER
(2001-) includes road kill I have found along the route
between Pori and Helsinki, which I have cast in bronze. The
series shows my creative work as consisting of an everyday
process of driving again and again. A following exhibition
titled Anaesthetic Relation also reminds of the non-aesthetic
aspects of the artistic work.

Jussi Tiainen
Anne Koskinen’s Autoportraits belong to the tradition in painting, where
the artist depicts his or her own likeness in mirror image. Because the
works are bronze, they call into question the nature of painting and
sculpture alike.
