The Icelandic video artist and painter Ragnar Kjartansson (b. 1976) presents his first solo exhibition in Estonia, featuring six large works from 2004–2025.
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.
As of 14 November, the exhibition of Tartu-themed works by Hilda Kamdron (1900‒1972), Vanishing of a City: Hilda Kamdron’s Drawings as a Trauma Narrative, is on display in the project space on Kumu’s 4th floor.
The large-scale exhibition of Latin American art is open for the last few days at the Kumu Art Museum. Starting from today, a traditional Mexican Day of the Dead altar – ofrenda – is on display in the Kumu Atrium as part of the exhibition’s closing programme. The main events will take place on Saturday, 2 November, while the exhibition and the altar will remain open until Sunday, 3 November.
The exhibition places the diverse oeuvre of a unique sisterhood in Estonian art – Kristine, Lydia and Natalie Mei – in dialogue with the artworks of their contemporaries.
A traditional Day of the Dead altar will be exhibited in Kumu’s atrium. The altar is made in collaboration with Mexican artists based in Estonia and the Embassy of Mexico.
Kumu is celebrating the Day of the Dead with a hands-on workshop focusing on the region’s indigenous ingredients, such as corn, chili peppers and cacao.
