Alternative Art

Location: 4th floor, B-wing

The exhibition is dedicated to the classics of avant-garde art from the Soviet period and focuses on the works of Ülo Sooster, Tõnis Vint, Kaljo Põllu, Leonhard Lapin, Raul Meel, and Jüri Okas.

It examines the relationship between the Soviet state and art, most vividly illustrated by the post-war Socialist Realism display. In the subsequent presentation of art styles and movements, the exhibition offers insights into various artistic phenomena of the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s (modernism, pop art, hyperrealism, etc.), while also paying attention to developments in the national painting school and graphic arts.
