To this day, cinematography and film influence his artistic approach. In an early series titled \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eMovies,\u003c\/I\u003e the Finnish artist investigated the relationship between cinema and photography by integrating the factor of time. In his latest work complex, \u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003eThe World As We Know It,\u003c\/I\u003e Lenkkeri employs a cinematic trick: he photographs settings, such as dioramas in natural history museums or murals in waiting rooms, so that his works move inside the disturbing, unfocused zone between reality and fiction. The presence of a figure, such as a museum guard, for example, heightens the ambivalent character of the photographs.\u003cBR\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cFONT size=3\u003e\u003cFONT face=TheSans-Plain\u003e\u003cI style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003eReality in the Making\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/I\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e presents this cycle of works by the young “Helsinki School” photographer, who already enjoys an international reputation.\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 12pt\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=3\u003e\u003cFONT face=TheSans-Plain\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\u003cFONT size=3\u003e\u003cFONT face=TheSans-Plain\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Synart Art Gallery, Frankfurt\/Main, January 17–February 17, 2007 \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Lucida Console'; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e·\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e Villa Oppenheim, Berlin, March 16–May 13, 2007 \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Lucida Console'; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e·\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e Peter Lav Photo Gallery, Copenhagen, May 25–June 30, 2007\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874812162312,"sku":"9783775718806","price":29.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775718806_37c5df4d-73b6-4f59-99a1-8f9e768615e9.jpg?v=1744145342","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/15667-ville-lenkkeri","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
