Drawn War - The Continuation War Through the Eyes of TK Artists — Sotamuseon Maneesi ja Tykistömaneesi, Helsinki
Description was written before the event

A guided tour through the exhibition "War Changed" presents works by artists from the information company (TK company) during the Continuation War. The tour also features stories about the everyday lives of ordinary people and soldiers in the midst of war.

The Continuation War began in summer 1941 and ended in autumn 1944. As the front lines advanced deep into Karelia, the works of TK artists captured the landscape and people transformed by battle - glimpses of daily life and moments that were reality for Finns during wartime.
