On August 11th at 6:00 pm, there will be an art exhibition at SillArt gallery by the artist Eduard Zentsik. The exhibition is called „Uus Tundmatu“ or “The New Unknown”. The name makes us think about what the future holds for us, as it's always full of unknowns. Maybe art can give us some hints? Eduard Zentsik is a multifaceted and prolific artist. His paintings create a fantastic space that seems to have room for all kinds of things and ideas. Every era and culture are influenced by his art, but there's a mysterious system behind it. Let's try to understand it better...

On Thursday, August 10th, 2023 at 18.00 Edgar Tedresaar will open his exhibition Where Is Your Red Line? in Draakon gallery. The exhibition will be open until September 2nd, 2023. Red lines can be stable, axiomatic and discreet. Yet they can also be unstable and larger than life. The latter have suddenly appeared in our lives. These are thick lines, effervescent and unnerving. In the field of security, red lines mark an area within which someone wants to be sovereign, or perhaps even dominate another. Such actors are rational and have agency. Their areas of activity inevitably overlap, albeit partially.

On Friday, 4 August at 5:00 p.m. Tarvo Varres will open his solo exhibition “Waiting is when time is always in excess and when time is nevertheless short” in the monumental gallery at the Tartu Art House. In this exhibition, the artist continues to move along the trajectory of site-specific text-based installations. The central idea of the exhibition is the seemingly universal and somewhat paradoxical motif of “waiting”. Similar to the personal exhibition “The Shadow of Time” held at the Hobusepea gallery at the end of last year, the works of this exhibition - both sculptural and conceptual text-objects - are formed from Maurice Blanchot's sentences, selected by the artist, but here focusing on the motif of “waiting” instead of the concepts of “self” and “time” in the previous exhibition.

We have the pleasure of inviting you to the opening of Diana Tamane's exhibition "Half-Love" on Thursday, 3 August 3 at 6 PM. The exhibition is centered on a series of photographs depicting the artist Diana Tamane’s younger half-sister Elina. The first photo was taken more than 10 years ago. Diana’s photos capture Elina growing up and the meetings of the two sisters every summer in the Latvian seaside summerhouse region Kursīši. The continuity of the photos provides insight into the sisters’ personal relationship and the development of their creative collaboration. According to Diana, she “wanted to recall the simple joys available to us, such as the feeling of the sun on our skin, the taste of still warm tomatoes from the greenhouse, the softness of the grass underfoot, and the sound and smell of the sea.”
