Description: Painter, sculptor, draughtsman and graphic artist Kimmo Kaivanto (Tampere 1932 - Helsinki 2012,) is known for his works depicting subjects connected with nature and addressing societal issues, and for his use of the colour ultramarine: 'Kaivanto's blue'. Kaivanto studied at the School of Arts, Design and Architecture in Helsinki in 1953 and 1954. In addition to his artistic work, he designed posters and stage sets as well as created illustrations. Kaivanto's works belong within the continuum of modern art. Beside colour, lines and linear structure, the emphasis of Kaivanto's work is on form, space and composition.
