The exhibition “Shadowsigns” by Ingrid Helena Pajo at Sophie Durand’s studio (at the Užupis Art Incubator, Vilnius) opens on November 16 at 6 p.m. On Sunday, the exhibition will be open from 12 to 5 p.m. The exhibition will be on view for one weekend only.
Welcome and please note: Shadow casts shape. Shape equals sign. Sign communicates meaning. Meaning projects back on shape, back to shadow. The space between meaning and shadow house possibilities. Shadow obscures actualities. Possibilities are meanings. Are personal. Signs are possibilities. Signs are shadows are shapes and shapes cast shadows.

On Friday, 15 November at 5 p.m., Johannes Säre will open his solo exhibition “Drills and Ladders” in the large gallery of the Tartu Art House.
The exhibition is Johannes Säre's first solo show after a seven-year creative break. It focuses on the artist's experiences during that period as an art technician.
The starting point of the exhibition revolves around the mishaps, successes and musings from that time on life, death and art broadly.
Säre continues to employ the dark humour characteristic of his earlier work but it is now directed towards the artist himself.
On Friday, November 8, at 5 p.m., the graphic artist Kelli Valk will open her solo exhibition “Read My Eyes” at the Vabaduse Gallery.
At the exhibition, Kelli Valk displays a selection of graphic works from 2024, which are strongly impelled by the continued war in Ukraine. The artist feels the need to ask “Why?” and “Who should give the answers?” But when one tries to rationalise the discord of our anxious world, only confusion echoes back. To think there’s still such destruction happening in our time… Fear, sorrow, despair seep into one’s eyes.
Group exhibition by the Sculpture Department at the Pallas University of Applied Sciences and the Estonian Sculptors' Union

What would the light of survival look like? In the delicate balance between heaviness and lightness lies the hope that, after today's rain, tomorrow's weather will bring clarity. There is light at the end of the tunnel.
As humans, we navigate a recurring vortex of millions of histories; our survival relies not only on resilience but also on visionary guidance. Courageous action, a contemporary interpretation of ancestral wisdom, and the ability to see the broader picture are essential.
You are invited to the opening of the new exhibition My Home, Our City at Tallinn Art Hall’s Lasnamäe Pavilion on Thursday, 31 October at 6 PM.

The exhibition is curated by Siim Preiman.

GOLDEN LOVE is a unique art exhibition-labyrinth that invites viewers on an exciting journey into the depths of the subconscious. In this world, where art becomes a mirror for inner experiences and hidden emotions, the artist reveals his newest and most symbolic works.
The exhibition offers a deep dive into a mystical world of images where enigmas intertwine with reality. We invite you to explore the space between the visible and the invisible, immersing yourself in a magical atmosphere where drops of real gold adorn the works, symbolizing femininity, spiritual and material wealth.
On Thursday, October 31st, at 18.00, Kadi Estland's exhibition Menopausal Lido will open at Hobusepea Gallery. The rap group Nancy Nakamura Räpipunt, known for incorporating texts from Kadi Estland's 2016 online poetry collection Curriculum Vitt, will perform at the opening event.
Kadi Estland: "I aimed to depict the concealed violence and misogyny that permeate our culture, something we endure as if it were a chronic illness. It's like a predator, always lurking, occasionally surfacing to strike. Much of classical art addresses issues created by men. I believe it's a widely shared experience that middle-aged and older women face their absence in cultural representation. Menopausal Lido was born out of a subtle sense of anger and frustration."
Liina Pääsuke designed the window panel for Menopausal Lido. Accompanying the exhibition is a book titled Black and White Winters.
On Thursday, October 31, at 6 p.m., Killu Sukmit’s exhibition “Talks with a Tiger” will open at Draakon gallery. The opening will be accompanied by a live music performance by Hello Upan & Killu Sukmit. The exhibition will remain open until November 23, 2024.

On Friday, 18th of October at 6 pm Jenny Grönholm and Jass Kaselaan will open their exhibition titled "Autumn 2024" at Vaal Gallery. The exhibition will remain open until 16th of November.
The exhibition features a series of parallel stories from two artists: Jenny Grönholm's flower paintings and Jass Kaselaan's concrete sculpture groups, which create a contrasting yet harmonious interplay.
Grönholm's paintings explore the themes of transience, destruction, and rebirth, using flowers as symbols of life cycles, human relationships, and renewal. Her delicate flowers capture both the fragility of life and the hope for new beginnings, offering a balance between destruction and beauty.
