The exhibition presents an overview of the works of Anna-Stina Treumund (1982-2017), who was the first in Estonia to openly identify as a lesbian artist. It is the largest solo exhibition of her works to date.
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 Dresden State Art Collections and the Art Museum of Estonia present an ambitious collaborative exhibition exploring the intersections of Estonian and German/Saxon art in history and currently.
Mykolas Žilinskas (1904–1992) was one of the most enigmatic figures and the leading art collector in 20th-century Lithuanian cultural history. Žilinskas, an émigré in West Berlin, amassed a collection of more than 1,600 works. He donated them to his country of birth, expressing his wish to strengthen the Lithuanian national spirit. Old Masters’ paintings, historical decorative arts and works by contemporary artists make up the best of the collection.
The display presents rare textiles, paintings and liturgical objects from the 11th to the 17th century, covering the Middle Ages through the works of El Greco and José de Ribera.
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.
