Ikuiset tissit - Eternal tits (Tattoos and Comics)
Open Mon-Sun 12am - 4pm
Finlaysoninkuja 3 Tampere


Both comics and tattoos are forms of art that are rarely seen in art galleries. Eternal Tits exhibition shows pictures of tattoos and comics dealing with breasts. Pin-up girls are typical sailor tattoos and the women in comics tend to have huge tits. However in contemporary comics the self-evident breasts are questioned. Exhibition contains works from the following artists: Arttu Heikkinen, Juha Janttonen, Wolf Kankare, Eero Lampinen, Emmi Nieminen and Jussi Rossi.

Eternal Tits is part of ”Sissit, tissit ja tasa-arvo” event. On Tuesday 26.4. there is a guided tour to two art exhibiton that take part in the event. Tour starts at 2 p.m. from gallery Rajatila and continues to Eternal Tits and ”Kriittinen rintamalinja” (public discussion) held at Labour Museum Werstas. After the discussion Guerilla Girls give a lecture on equality in art world and the evening ends with a party organised by Tampere Queer klub.
