Johannes Ivakko’s sculptures on Radiom\u00e4ki hill<\/h1>

Self-taught artist Johannes Ivakko<\/em>’s delightful concrete sculptures, beautifully mossy, can be found in the courtyard of the Museum Mastola in Radiomäki, Lahti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Johannes Ivakko was born in Salmi, Karelia, in 1914, and he settled in Lahti after being evacuated. Ivakko first made his life-size concrete sculptures of animals and human figures that depict life in Karelia in his garden in Myllypohja, Lahti, but they have since been moved to Radiomäki. Some of the works have reached the end of their lifespan, and in 2025, those in poor condition were removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
