John is a good artist. He is not just an artist; rather he is devoted to arts. He never misses any art exhibitions that have been conducted in our city. He even traveled wide to participate in many exhibitions.
“I am still a student and I had to learn a lot. All my journeys are for learning more.” He used to say. During one of our weekend get-together s, some of our friends suggested him to visit Helsinki. It has been declared as the design capital of the world at that time. The designing is not limited to arts there. New designs are coming up in all the products that have been manufactured by industries based at that city. These innovative designs made them popular.
Accepting the suggestion, John planned to visit Helsinki. Though he was one of the best artists in our city, he was not familiar with airline ticketing etc. he sought my help to get best airfares available. As I know one of the agents, I could get him cheap plane fares and soon he boarded one of the cheap flights to Helsinki.
After his return, it took him almost three days to complete his narration about the city and its artistic talents. It is the capital of Finland and it has a history of more than 500 years. A small town has been developed to a large city after the invasion of Russians. After the Second World War, it attained more importance and it equals many major cities in Europe in per capita GDP. Many known brands like NOKIA, KONY etc are coming to the world from this city. Though it has developed considerably in business, the main attraction is its cultural tradition.
The National Gallery in Helsinki reflects the artistic talents of the city and its denizens. It consists of three museums, Ateneum Art Museum, which contains Classical Finnish art forms, Sinebrychoff Art Museum, which exhibits classical European art and Kiasma Art Museum, which displays modern art. I could understand his emotions when he speaks about various art forms exhibited there. He is such a crazy as far as art is concerned.
“Not only are these museums, every building itself reflecting the artistic talent of the people. I have never seen such talented people.” He was speaking from his heart. “You really helped me with those flight tickets. Later on I came to know that there are a number of airlines that offer cheap tickets to Helsinki. This increased the number of visitors coming to the city.” He told me.
Apart from arts and designing, Helsinki has several other feathers to add in its crown. Being a devotee of art, my friend did not see all those. Hence, I had to explain to him. It had hosted the Olympic Games in 1952. It had several sports arenas and theaters. It hosts a number of world class venues for performing arts too. He was amazed to find out about all these things. He really thought that he should have visited Helsinki in the past.
