ROHTO: straight on medicine art

Edited by Sanna Juntunen

Texts by Markus Renvall, Lilibeth Cuenca Rasmussen, Nikolaj Recke and Egill Saebjörnsson


The ROHTO book introduces Markus Renvall's original social art movement Straight-on-Medicine-Art, premiered at the five-day ROHTO - Art for Young Men event at the Helsinki City Art Museum 6-10 February 2002.

The book outlines artist Markus Renvall's concept Straight-on-Medicine-Art by texts and by describing the works of art thus making the existence of the concept more tangible. The first medicine-art works looking for solutions to social and cultural problems were made for ROHTO, an event particularly targeted at young men that took place in Helsinki City Art Museum in February 2002.

ROHTO is a collaboration between NIFCA and Markus Renvall.
