the slope of the former berry field now shows the sculptures at their best

The former fields of the mansion were abandoned in the sixties of the twentieth century. The orchard had diminished to a handful of apple trees; the fields soon filled up with mainly birch trees. These were removed to accommodate the geothermic heating system for the house and studios. Thus the field regained its open character again. The bronze and steel sculptures had been on a long term loan to the Finnish city of Kajaani, since the sculptor had an exhibition there in the Art Museum of Kajaani (Kajaanin taidemuseo) in 1995. In the exhibition more than one hundred sculptures, drawings, prints and photographs by the artist were shown, it was titled in retrospect.
