Our aim at the Voionmaa Institute, independent Finnish school of Media and Art ([ Ссылка ] ) is to widen our international co-operation perspective to Italy and its institutes of visual arts. In March 2011 I visited the Art Center of Pesario (Centro Arti Visive Pescheria), LEDA (Laboratorio Educational Department Accademia di Belle Arti di Urbino) and the Art Academy of Urbino (Accademia di Belle Arti di Urbino). We had discussions about co-operation forms and possibilities with Antonella Micaletti, the leader of LEDA in Pesaro, and Sebastiano Guerrera, director of the Art Academy of Urbino. Please notice also our new annual magazine "Väinö" in the hands of Sebastiano Guerrera! -- Hannu Sinisalo
