„Roots and Ruins“ group exhibiton

The participants in the exhibition are influential figures in Estonian contemporary art: Edith Karlson, Kris Lemsalu, Jaanus Samma and Jaan Toomik. The exhibition is curated by Rael Artel.

Roots and Ruins ponders processes that all of us inhabit and are part of through our existence. It talks of our ancestors and how we ourselves turn into forebears, and tells stories of times past, the source of all the items, questions and stories we must deal with today. The key phrases that characterize the selection of exhibited works are lineage and heritage, roof turning into foundation, seeds becoming roots, birth, passing on and dying (out).

The exhibition runs until 8 November.

The exhibition is supported by Cultural Endowment of Estonia and Valmiermuiza Brewery
