The traditional annual exhibition of Tartu art can be visited in the Tartu Art House. This year its title is “Tightrope Walker” and it is designed by Eveli Varik.

The exhibition deals with different doomsday scenarios and their depiction in films. The curator is Kaisa Maasik.

The exhibition focuses on the male figures that have an important role in the artist’s life.

As a musician, Maidla describes his exhibitions as albums. And as is customary in music to presume that every new album offers a new approach, so does the introduction of a new instrument characterise this absurdly titled exhibition. Photography in Maidla’s oeuvre has finally transformed into printmaking. The lines that…

Maris Paal’s “Nausea” was selected in spring from a list of eight projects. The exhibition consists of paintings and an interactive installation. In the gallery, sweetly pastel-toned mixed media works are set in contrast to unpleasant visuals of the paintings and the installation.

The exhibition consists of Maasik’s latest central photo series “Geometry and Metaphysics”, “Limen” and “Tangles”. All the images are displayed in Tartu for the first time and the images of “Tangles” have been specially selected from previously unreleased materials. The series are brought together by Elnara Taidre’s essay “Individual Spaces”.

When used in literature, “little man” was little mostly…

Eelmaa’s latest works have focused on researching the specific characteristics of paintings: the relationships between matter, form, space and images. The exhibition “I Create What I Think – ABRACADABRA” is a continuation of her earlier series “Gently in the Air”.

The exhibition focuses on printmaking as a process that is cultivated through contacts between forms and counterforms (negative space), and by the tension produced by these interactions. We are not so much interested in specific images, proofs, shapes or manners as in printed matter’s ability to introduce the new space …

A small shop in the suburbs of Pärnu. A barbershop in Puhja. An accounting office in Maardu. Estonia advertises itself to the world as a place where founding a company only takes a moment. Great. What about ending business activities? In the 1990s, many were glad to exploit the newly …

On Monday, 11 May curatorial exhibition “On Monday It Was Still Snowy” about staying at home and being in quarantine will be opened in the large and small galleries of the Tartu Art House.

The exhibition When the Stage Lights Came On… tells the multi-layered story of a theatre by displaying the folio of prints Theatre Wanemuine 100, which focuses on the beginning of the Vanemuine Theatre.
