On 17 November, the Art Museum of Estonia celebrates its 105th birthday. According to Chief Executive Officer Sirje Helme, the Art Museum of Estonia, celebrating its 105th anniversary, is an organisation with long traditions, and with great potential for development and success.
The exhibition explores the ways stones and rocks have provided inspiration to stonemasons, painters and jewellery artists in different eras. If we listen intently, stones can tell us ancient stories and introduce us to characters whose voices have been silent for a long time.
A movement valuing slowness has begun to rear its head in the world as a counterbalance to the social model that glorifies speed. This contemporary art exhibition examines how to slow down the extremely fast pace of life, act more gradually and more calmly, and do less.
The exhibition introduces the rich history and artistic diversity of the Portuguese ceramic tiles called azulejos. The exhibition is being organised in collaboration with the National Tile Museum of Portugal. Curators: João Pedro Monteiro and Karin Vicente
