Designed for the Textile Museum of Canada, Marimekko, With Love documents a retrospective look at the iconic company’s origins. Marimekko was introduced to Canadian and international audiences in 1959 by architect, interior and industrial designer Janis Kravis in his groundbreaking contemporary Finnish design studio, Karelia. Kravis developed a close relationship with Marimekko’s founder and visionary designer, Armi Ratia and the objects in the exhibition are primarily drawn from Karelia’s collections and archives.
