Exhibition tour

The guided tour in English at the exhibition of contemporary art “(Un)Balanced: Exhibition About Noticing and Peace of Mind” is led by the art historian and curator Karin Vicente.

This exhibition deals with the issue of looking after mental health. It invites us to reflect on how to maintain a balance between joys and sorrows, work and leisure, and how to cope with changes or difficulties. Painful topics include loneliness, exhaustion and burnout, but the works displayed also encourage viewers to see the brighter side of life and to find joy in everyday moments. The exhibition features works by eight contemporary artists: Ingrid Allik, Merle Kannus, Flo Kasearu, Karel Koplimets, Urmas Lüüs, Piret Räni, Maret Sarapu and Sigrid Viir.

Welcome Tour is a series of curator-led tours in English at the Old Town branches of the Art Museum of Estonia, where museum professionals introduce Estonian cultural heritage and temporary exhibitions, ranging from medieval to contemporary art. Come and learn about Estonian art, culture and history. Everyone is welcome!

empty-image — Kaja Kärner. Composition with a Clock. 1955–1959. Art Museum of Estonia

Kaja Kärner (1920–1998) was one of the central figures in the legendary Tartu circle of friends, the first informal group of artists in post-World War II Estonia. She created abstract compositions with a good sense of rhythm and colour, collages and genre paintings which capture the overall tonality of the era with subtle shades of colour and hidden irony.
