Ihme 2009-2018: 10 Times Art in Public

By Claire Doherty

IHME, the Finnish word for "miracle" or "wonder", describes something strange or weird, something that wakens curiosity. The annual IHME Contemporary Art Festival (2009-2018), produced by Pro Arte Foundation Finland, aims to enhance the status, visibility and accessibility of visual art and to promote art as a resource for democratic society, an important part of human life and everyday existence. Now in its tenth year, the festival consists of commissioned work of art in a public space, as well as lectures, discussions, films, and workshops. This publication documents the ten annual commissions, and features conversations with the artists.
