Eino Ruutsalo


This is a short animation by Eino Ruutsalo, a pioneer in Finnish visual and kinetic arts. He was a film-maker, painter and sculptor.  I confess, I don't know much about him but a quick google came up with a plethora of links.

Er, I just saw it in the title sequence, no detective work involved. I do love Mika Taanila's portrait of Kurenniemi (I guess that's the DVD you're refering to). Also check out Taanila's film about the Futuro House!
