Topic: Aino Aalto

	Aalto, Alvar
		Hugo Alvar Henrik Aalto was one of the first major architects of the modern movement to emerge in Scandinavia and Finland, and he remains one of the most individual and poetic masters of functionalism in the architecture of our time.
		Aalto was born at Kuortane in Finland in 1898.
		Aalto's painting is still relatively unknown and a detailed review of his various periods can hardly be given before the material has been collected together and the different works compared.

	Alvar Aalto: Savoy Vase (1936). Text by Jan Michl
		Aalto wanted the forms to be blown into molds made of thin steel sheets forced to form closed sinuous shapes with the help of steel pegs; the aim was to make the molds easily replaceable in order to make remodelling possible.
		Aalto's growing preoccupation with sinuous, "organic" shapes became explicit in his acoustic design for his municipal library lecture hall at Viipuri in 1935, where the ceiling of the long and narrow hall is provided with a strikingly expressive undulating wooden "lining".
		Aalto himself is said to have alleged that the lines of the vase were prompted to him by the captivating shape of a puddle.
