Artist's Comments
In 1960 there were 49 movie theaters in Helsinki. In 2006 there are only 8 left.
Kinostalgia is a nostalgic tribute to the old cinemas - to the palaces where the movies (and heck, even movie-goers) were kings. The photographs are taken in fall 2006 in four of the oldest remaining movie theaters of Helsinki: Bio Rex, Orion, Maxim and Forum. (Of which Forum was closed down during summer 2006.) All photos shot with Holga on Kodak Portra 100T, using available light. This photo is from Bio Rex, built in 1936. The theater currently hosts various events through the year, but is not in day-to-day cinema use anymore.

This photo certainly captures the elusive sense of nostalgia and all the style from days past! (Featured by `equivoque) |

 reports, 1d 22h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
