Artist

Pekka Vyhtinen

Pekka Vyhtinen is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Helsinki City Museum.

This Finnish artist worked in the quiet hum of Helsinki’s cable factory, sketching the backstage chaos of art world events instead of the finished paintings. His drawings catch the real work—the tape dispensers, the coffee stains, the artist who’s just realized they forgot the stretcher bars. Look up his line drawings from the Kaapelitehtaalla event; you’ll see the same kind of unposed energy you get when you peek behind the velvet rope at a big show.
