The conference will focus on the role of Michel Sittow’s (c 1469–1525) workshop in Tallinn and its positioning in the context of the artist’s hometown and the Baltic Sea region.
Jette Loona Hermanis has been invited to interact with the exhibition “Through the Black Gorge of Your Eyes”, for which she has created a new work “Endling”, which deals with mortality and loneliness in a surreal apocalyptic environment.
The seminar will present the latest research on Swedish late medieval art. The seminar precedes the conference Michel Sittow in the North? Artistic contacts in the late medieval Baltic region (2‒3 November 2023, Niguliste Museum).
This workshop calls to discuss the art world’s green transition in a creative and at the same time critical manner and explore it across disciplines – inviting professionals and students from art and design, conservation, curating and museology and related fields.
