Anne Koskinen (born 1969) is a versatile conceptual artist whose works have often addressed the problematic of originals and copies. She is remembered for her photographically detailed watercolours as well her bronze casts of road-kill animals and carved wooden reproductions of paintings. The present exhibition features bronze replicas of bodybuilding or "body-sculpting" equipment along with slightly ironic watercolours of Koskinen herself - as an "Anne of Finland" figure - engaged in bodybuilding.
