The Secret of Adam, the solo exhibition of Jevgeni Zolotko, one of the most idiosyncratic contemporary artists in Estonia, will open in the Kumu Art Museum on 31 May. The exhibition explores the relationship between things and language in human life, referring to the story in the Bible where Adam was given the task of naming everything around him. The artist and the museum have dedicated this exhibition to the late curator Triin Tulgiste-Toss (1987–2024).
A cinema concert in the auditorium of the Kumu Art Museum on 24 May will combine a classic silent film with a contemporary musical experience: the film My Grandmother by Kote Mikaberidze will be shown, with the Finnish experimental music collective Cleaning Women providing the avant-garde soundtrack.
