简介

Jukka Korkeila (b. 1968, Hämeenlinna) is one of Finland’s foremost painters. He lives and works in Helsinki and Berlin. He initially studied architecture and interior and furniture design, before studying at the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts and the Berlin University of the Arts during the 90’s. In 1999, Korkeila was named Young Artist of the Year in Finland. His works are represented in key Nordic contemporary-art collections.

Jukka Korkeila is known as an artist who challenges boundaries in both the content of his images and his treatment of the tradition of painting. His paintings can be seen as being both harsh and fragile at the same time. His oeuvre includes paintings, installations and drawings. The feelings in Korkeila’s works range from humour to disgust, from despair to hope. In his recent works he has particularly used the recycling and layering of images and text.
