Gudrun Koppel’s exhibition “She hoped that Angels see and understand – She hoped that someone sees and understands” in Draakon gallery will be opened on Monday, 3rd of August at 18.00. The exhibition remains open until August 29.
Just as a mythical snake that devours itself from its tail continues to eat its tail in a total endless eternal circle, so everything is the same and has already happened here under the Sun. In retrospect, arbitrary generalizations are made, about which there is no complete truth, because narratives have been interpreted as reflective in the world behind the mirror.
The way angels are portrayed, as we understand them in the Western Christian world, comes from Persia, the oldest monotheistic religion, Zoroastrianism.
The island of Antirhodos sank to the seabed due to a tsunami caused by an earthquake in the 4th century.

The exhibition brings together the installation "Husa" by Mari-Leen Kiipli and series of photo collages "Crystal Grid" by Paul Kuimet. The opening takes place in the gallery and the courtyard of the Widget Factory. We kindly ask to keep a reasonable distance so that everybody can feel comfortable.
The installation by Mari-Leen first created for Haapsalu City Gallery and exhibited there in July fills the Kogo Gallery and expands to the yard of the Widget Factory. Series "Crystal Grid" by Paul Kuimet was first shown at the Tallinn Art Hall in the Paul Kuimet's and Mihkel Ilus' exhibition "Endless Story" curated by Siim Preiman.
Mari-Leen Kiipli's installation "Husa" depicts a fantastic garden.
In July, the windows of A–gallery on the corner of Hobusepea and Pikk street host the exhibitions of. The exhibitions are on view in any weather and at any time of the day between 6th and 29th of August 2020.
Also, keep an eye on the homepage of A-gallery for the continuation of the artist talk series!
EXTENDED PLAY
On Thursday, 30 July at 5 pm Mari Volens will open her solo exhibition “Sudden Disentanglement” in the monumental gallery of the Tartu Art House.
The exhibition consists of the installation “A Quiet Turn” (2018, earlier exhibited in the Draakoni Gallery in Tallinn and at the Tallinn Art Hall group exhibition “The Art of Being Good”) and the photo series “Taking Shape”. The artist uses sound, light, colour and moving objects to create the resulting ensemble. Altogether it is the border between the internal world of thoughts and imagination and the external reality.
Something started moving.
Couldn’t go on as before.
Some air got into the compressed state,
rigidity and defence were replace by trust.
What if we could let go of familiar forms?
If we knew that there was another way.
If we didn’t forget that we didn’t need more.
Maybe we can,
maybe we don’t have to,

On Thursday, 30 July at 5 p.m. Ulvi Haagensen will open her personal exhibition “From the Archive: a Collection of Funny Things” in the small gallery of the Tartu Art House.
The imaginary author of the exhibition, Olive Puuvill creates art works in the manner of a bricoleuse. In her latest work she combines patterns, lines, textures and light to create an installation where objects, situations, materials and ideas are juxtaposed in a slightly chaotic arrangement, but one that nonetheless has a logic of its own. All this bears the traces of her intentions, aims and ideas as physical evidence of the working processes where Olive’s everyday life clashes, meets and melds with her art practice.
The artist adds: “Some of the pieces are handmade, others not. They clash, they harmonise. Some are possibly useful or functional, others not.
Tarrvi Laamann will be at the SOLARIS Gallery on July 26th. The traveler and painter will be introducing his artworks, playing music and painting live between 12‒7 pm.
Tarrvi Laamann (born 1973) is a painter and traveler with his roots in Estonia but has considered Jamaica for the past two decades to be his second home. Tarrvi has acquired his art education in the Estonian Academy of Arts (1998 BA, 2000 MFA), and has had additional studies in Japan and India. He is also a guest lecturer at the Estonian Academy of Arts and in the Tartu Pallas.

Husa is a grove that is filled with postures of thinking and feeling driven by lushy landscapes of city and beyond. Our full breath takes about three seconds while plants inhale in a day and exhale during the night. This different rhythm puts us in fast forward pace. The scene is carried by night winds, emotional wreckage, cars, building lots, flying insects and movement of plants.
Husa is made of
a set of unbroken car windows
bent armature, concrete
water, dripping
second hand jewellery
lace boots
Ensis shells
twining plants of Ipomoea genus
runner beans
raspberries

On Wednesday 24th of July at 5pm, Anne Roolaht will open her exhibition "Come to the woods. go to the woods. be in the woods. in the woods." With the exhibition, Roolaht calls to offer attention to the companion species of humans. The exhibition will be on display until 15 August.
Anne Roolaht: The woods and its creatures are a part of us, they are our kin – we cannot do without them. We have to care for our close ones. During the recent years, I have dedicated my jewellery to the protection of endangered species. Wolves, white-tailed eagles, bears, deer, flying squirrels and other animals are represented in my works because I want to bring them to attention, to protect them in my own fashion. With this exhibition, I present new works of silver jewellery with precious stones. To accompany the jewellery, I am presenting my graduation work tutored by Heinz Valk – a cast bronze table.
Расположенная на первом и втором этажах Тартуского художественного музея выставка «Молчащий» рассуждает о молчании, экзистенциализме и политичности. Пространственная видеоинсталляция Евгения Золотко погружает в молчание воспоминаний и предметов. Инсталляцию дополняют живопись, графические листы и фотографии 1934-1940-х годов, связанных с так называемой «эпохой безмолвия».
