Estonian Glass Artists’ Union’s 21st annual exhibition “Colour – red 2.0”

14.05–11.06.2022

Exhibition opening will take place on the 14th of May at 16:00.

Estonian Glass Artists’ Union’s annual exhibition, which travels between different exhibition spaces in Estonia, will make its debut this year in Ida-Viru county. It is a sequel to Estonian Glass Artists’ Union’s 20th annual exhibition Colour – RED held in ARS Project Space in 2020. With the follow-up exhibition new time- and site-specific layers and viewpoints are added to the topic of red and its variations that were the main focus in the previous exhibition.

 The keywords for Estonian Glass Artists´ Union´s exhibition Colour – red 2.0 are  c o n t r a s t , c o n f r o n t a t i o n  and  t r a n s i t i o n . The exhibition showcases the works from eighteen glass artists, who have interpreted the topic freely by using personal semantics, metaphors and symbolism.

 The curator enters the dialog of Colour – red 2.0 by adding the colour green in the exhibition design. Through confrontation and contrasts a whole is born.
