Welcome to the new open-air portrait gallery


Until September the Lilla Teatern building in Yrjönkatu street is under renovation and surrounded by a fence which normally would have attracted to graffiti artists like honey to bees.
Yes, it did now, too, but this time graffiti artist Jani Tolin worked with kids from Helsinki Upper Secondary School of Visual Arts to decorate the fence with a lovely portrait gallery of Lillan´s most famous actors, writers and directors. There you can see for example Birgitta Ulfsson bigger than life, but wait – isn´t she bigger than life on stage as well?
