Description: KÄRÄJÄKIVET
Is an independent publishing project of thought and criticism of art and architecture that was born from a research around the unbuilt Saivaara Monument designed in 1978 by the Finnish artist Tapio Wirkkala for the Saivaara fjeld in Lapland. The publisher has been achieving, not in form but in content, the concept of Käräjäkivet that Tapio Wirkkala wanted for the Saivaara Monument: the creation of a place where men of all races and colors can gather to think. In this sense, there is an online platform - www.karajakivet.com - where several invited authors are able to gather through literary constructions produced by them, sharing their ideas, in a sort of modern-day assembly.

Evoking the place that Tapio Wirkkala wanted to create at the top of the Saivaara, Käräjäkivet meant to be a place of slowness and introspection where to stop, “observe the landscape” and think.
