The exhibition focuses on two series of drawings by Hilda Kamdron (1900–1972), depicting the city of Tartu in the Second World War, when much of the old city was destroyed, and during post-war modernisation.
The exhibition brings together three different, yet equally sensitive artistic visions. Their photographic series exemplify how the camera may amplify the distance from the surrounding environment, lend voices to stones, plants and water, and make the intrinsic interlacing of natural and artificial environments visible.
This exhibition offers speculation on the spaces, objects and images that the Estonian middle class have chosen to surround themselves with and through which they have defined themselves.
The exhibition brings together the works of Elisàr von Kupffer (1872–1942), an artist with a Baltic-German background, and of the Estonian artist Jaanus Samma (1982).
This exhibition explores how Estonian artists have portrayed sex work, how their works reflect the attitudes of society, and whether these representations may have contributed to shaping these attitudes.
This is the first major exhibition of Latin American art in Estonia, featuring art from the Spanish Colonial period, as well as works by 20th-century artists from Uruguay, Peru, Chile, Mexico and Cuba.
The exhibition, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Ülo Sooster, an inimitably playful creator and a significant reformer of Estonian post-war modernism, displays works that belong to private collections.
The exhibition introduces members of the Kügelgen family, who played a significant role in the cultural history of Estonia. The display includes works of art created by the Kügelgens and everyday objects associated with the family. The majority of the exhibits belong to the private collection of the Kügelgen family. Tallinn is the third city, after Lüneburg and Dresden, where this exhibition has been held.
The exhibition sheds light on the early history of the Art Museum’s collection in the 1920s–1930s, during the first decades of the Republic of Estonia, when ethnographic artefacts, national handicrafts and other items of cultural heritage were collected by the museum, in addition to works of art.
The exhibition is dedicated to the depiction of Spain and includes romantic views of Spain, as well as masterpieces by the grand masters of Modernism. Buoyant and sunny, or dark and tragic, the “whiteness” and “blackness” of the quintessence of Spain are revealed through magnificent works of art.
