Ville Lenkkeri curated an exhibition Touching from a Distance to the new Serlachius museum in his native Mänttä.
For the exhibition he invited, on behalf of the Serlachius Fine Art Foundation, nine photographic artists to come and work in Mänttä. Summer’s 2015 main exhibition in the Serlachius museum was then summoned out of the resulting works.
The exhibition was visited by 62 000 visitors.
