On 27 August this year, Ülle Meister (1948–2021) would have turned 78. To mark the occasion, the artist’s heirs donated 64 of her works to the Art Museum of Estonia: 18 watercolours, four drawings and 42 prints.
The exhibition Hold Me Dearly: A Monument to Survival will open in the inner courtyard of the Kumu Art Museum on 28 August. The exhibition presents to viewers stories about children and youngsters whose behaviour is often rooted in trauma, fear, rejection and the lack of a sense of belonging. Hold me Dearly is an expressive and heartfelt exhibition, which was born in cooperation with youngsters living in closed child care institutions (the Estonian acronym is KLAT).
