Vienna International Apartment

Vienna International Apartment is an exhibition venue for contemporary visual arts in Helsinki, Finland. It was created in Vienna, Austria in 2001, moved to Turku, Finland in 2003, to Helsinki, Finland in 2005, to Brussels, Belgium in 2007, to Geneva, Switzerland in 2010, to Helsinki, Finland in 2014, and to Berlin, Germany in 2015. In 2004, the Vienna International Apartment Art Association, a not-for-profit association established to support the activity, was registered in Finland.[1]

Vienna International Apartment has run two exhibitions a year in the apartment of its founder Silvio Salgado (b. 1968), artist and curator. The aim of the project has been, through the art works and their presentation, to discuss issues related to the relation between public and private. As another distinctive feature, the exhibitions have aimed at bringing together artists and audiences from different backgrounds and experiences, nationalities, ages, interests and media, and the events have incorporated public talks and performances.[2][3]
