About 'Color is a Common Thing'
Porvoo Triennial is an overall art exhibition where art will take over the city space with the theme 'Color is a Common Thing'. The artwork of the exhibition is on display in the public city space and in traditional art halls and museums in the center of Porvoo. On the other hand, the exhibition expands towards suburbs and areas where art is not used to be found.
We want to bring you alternatives to use color to shape opportunities, ideas and examples in our society, our city, our village, our suburbs and our backyard and our traditional art spaces. Color is part of art and everyday life. The theme Color is a Common Thing can be understood as an acceptance of difference.

The Triennial comments on Porvoo's various temporal and functional areas, infiltrates the city and encounters and challenges people in everyday and unexpected situations. In 2021, art will take over the city space with the theme Color is a Common Thing. Petri Hytönen and Stig Baumgartner |
