The Icelandic video artist and painter Ragnar Kjartansson (b. 1976) presents his first solo exhibition in Estonia, featuring six large works from 2004–2025.
The year 2025 will be celebrated in Estonia and Latvia as the 500th anniversary of the printing of the first known books written in the respective languages. In cooperation with Tallinn University and the Tallinn City Archives.
The exhibition brings together around 45 paintings and graphic works by this highly talented and versatile Italian artist, from European museums and from private collections.
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.
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 exhibition introduces the rich history and artistic diversity of the Portuguese ceramic tiles called azulejos. The exhibition is being organised in collaboration with the National Tile Museum of Portugal. Curators: João Pedro Monteiro and Karin Vicente
The exhibition places the diverse oeuvre of a unique sisterhood in Estonian art – Kristine, Lydia and Natalie Mei – in dialogue with the artworks of their contemporaries.
The Kumu project space features seven paintings by Leonora Carrington from her Mexican period, which are characterised by her unique style and fanciful, symbolic imagery.
Jevgeni Zolotko (b. 1983) is one of the most original Estonian contemporary artists. The exhibition showcases the artist’s recent works. It also features some brand new works created specifically for the exhibition.
