Arteles offers refurnished accommodation and working studio spaces of various sizes. There are large rooms for group accommodations as well as private rooms. In the former school buildings, the spacious classrooms have been turned into multiple work stations. There are some accommodations with workspace attached, which can be suitable for sound, media or artists requiring less space. There are even secluded rooms suitable for writers or researchers.
The historical value and functional qualities of Timber, the older building built in 1907 has been restored as much as possible. The second school building called, Nexus 9000, has been renovated with newer amenities and modern decor, though there are many surprising rooms to be discovered. Working studios and bedrooms are private whereas the kitchens, toilets and bathrooms are shared. Other common areas include a traditional Finnish sauna which is heated almost every day, an ice hockey rink and Spectacle Spaces.
Spectacle Spaces
Formerly Known as Art Gallery
Traditional gallery spaces are now dead. We see no sense in having a 3 weeks exhibition if 98% percent of the visitors only come for the openings and the remainder of the time the gallery is empty. In place of a static gallery, we have replaced it with what we call “Spectacles”.
Spectacles focus resources to putting on dynamic and high-turnaround events often lasting one to three days. These are often multi-disciplinary and become hybrids of open-studios, installations, concerts and theater performances and “happenings”. We borrow the term “Spectacle” from Guy Debord with respect to his life’s work. Therefore any communal space within the center can be turned into a “Spectacle Spaces”.
Below are some suggested Spectacle Spaces:
Indoors (see the plan as pdf): Cellar Chambers, Chill Outer Space, Barry White´s Funky Catacomb, Fauni´s Levitation, Arteles Gallery and individual working spaces.
Outdoors: Outdoor Arts & Activities Field, workshop shed, ice hockey rink, surrounding forest and lake.
