On July 2 at 18.00, Jenny Grönholm’s solo exhibition Apostles will open at Hobusepea gallery. The exhibition will remain open until July 28, 2025. The starting point for the exhibition is a single family photo album, or more precisely, its absence, at a time when it seemed every household was expected to have a personal archive of memories. This one album contains only eleven photographs. No others remain – few were ever taken. From these rare images, the paintings for this exhibition have taken shape. The photographs depict twelve of my thirteen aunts: all captured on their confirmation day, flowers in hand, their gazes turned toward the future.The thirteenth aunt is missing, as there is always someone of whom no trace remains. The family did not own a camera. There is only one photograph of each child: a confirmation portrait at age fifteen, with flowers. A silent image, marking the only official moment in their young lives.

“Surrounded” Kadri Toomi & Helle Vahersalu
On Friday, June 27 at 17.00, the joint exhibition Surrounded by graphic artist Kadri Toom and painter Helle Vahersalu will open at Vabaduse Gallery. The exhibition “Surrounded” is a visual dialogue between two generations, a conversation between a teacher and a student. For Kadri Toom, it was her painting studies at the Tartu Art College under Helle Vahersalu that deeply influenced her later colour-centric printmaking. This time, however, Toom has approached the part of her teacher’s oeuvre that has previously remained hidden from the wider audience: colourful sketches and abstract compositions painted on cardboard. In this way, two different, yet delightfully complementary perceptions of landscape come together. – Peeter Talvistu in the text accompanying the exhibition.
