The course provides an overview of how the contemporary art scene in Estonia functions – the most important organisations, the movers and shakers, the currently important and active artists from different disciplines, and the types of events being held. The causal factors behind the art scene are also explored, starting from the restoration of independence, Estonian art in the context of the regional and broader international art scene, and much more.
The participants will receive an overview of the art field of Estonia through lectures, discussions, studio/institutional visits and art.

We invite you to take part in a rare opportunity to serve in the Special Programs Think Tank to envision and create hypothetical “special programs” that Estonia’s government might instate, either in the future or in parallel realities.
This five-day event will provide you with the chance to design preferable paths for government, guided by future-visioning strategists from the Extrapolation Factory. Over the course of the workshop, participants will be introduced to the essential principles of futures studies and will learn to identify signals, extrapolate implications and create future artefacts.
Each program will be announced through physical, print or digital artefacts to be shared with local citizens.

During the sculptural headwear course, the participants will acquire techniques for moulding and draping headwear and making couture millinery in traditional materials. In addition to innovative and alternative solutions, the course will look into the history, functions and meaning of headwear.
The workshop will introduce, based on the example of the Balenciaga fashion house in Paris, the materials and techniques of handmade millinery in order to popularise the field of millinery design that has become marginal in recent decades. By researching various materials (straws, felt, etc.), the participants will obtain the necessary historical background knowledge to help in maintaining the tradition of wearing innovative couture millinery.

This workshop is structured on architecture, numbers and cognition with a primary focus on public space/traffic. Two broader topics pervade the workshop. One of them is more physical, involving translating the world into parameters, and the other is mapping social activities/feelings. The broad goal is to find connections between the two sets of topics. The environment around us consists of a number of physically countable and measurable parameters, which we can use to describe it (width of a carriageway, location of a cafe). Which parameters are best in describing or designing the world?

The course teaches icon painting. The painting process follows the authentic icon painting technique – egg tempera mixed from dry pigments, multi-layered painting, etc. Each participant will have the opportunity to paint their own icon.
Parallel to the painting process, the participants will receive an overview of the iconographic principles and meanings in icon painting, the materials and techniques used, as well as their conservation process.

The participants will learn essential skills in historical icon painting and get an introduction to the history, significance and conservation process of icons.

The Department of Ceramics at the Estonian Academy of Arts invites you to participate in an international Clay 3D Printing workshop. Ceramics have properties that allow them to be used in the most disparate fields. We usually don’t consider that ceramics are all around us, not just in kitchenware, but also in bathrooms, swimming pools and public interiors, and that stoves and fireplaces, and even houses, are made of fired clay. Top-quality ceramics can be found in medical equipment, audio technology and the air and space industry. Clay is a sensitive, flexible and versatile material with its own technological limits, which the participants will learn during the workshop.
3D printing in clay allows us to print three-dimensional objects or models at a lower cost and more easily. For ceramists, it represents a new technological possibility, while for others it gives a chance to convert digital sketches into real three-dimensional objects.
During this course, participants will learn the technical skills of 3D printing and printing in clay: creating G-code and STL files, plus preparation of the clay and printing.
The aim of the course is to use innovative thinking to discover new ways of printing, using clay and printed ceramics. The end of the workshop will feature a pop-up exhibition of the objects created.

Pühapäeval, 28. aprillil tähistame Telliskivi Loomelinnaku sünnipäeva Loomelinnak 10 (sünni)päevaklubi üritusel. Otsi meid Erinevate Tubade Klubi “klubisaalist”!

Töötuba: “Katkematu joonistus”

Allan Kukk

Pühapäev, 28. aprill kell 12–13.30
Erinevate Tubade Klubi “klubituba”
Tasuta

EKA avatud akadeemia joonistamise töötoas luuakse pilte, millega vaadeldakse ümbritsevat ja eneses toimuvat vaheldumisi. Kui keskkonna kujutamisel tekib vajadus sellest puhata või pole kindel, kuidas edasi jätkata, siis joonistatakse edasi kõike seda, mis parasjagu pähe tuleb kuni paber on täis. See annab võimaluse näha, kuidas igaühe tähelepanu töötab ja kuidas ümbritseva vaatlemine mõtteprotsesse mõjutab. Töötuba sobib nii algajale kui edasijõudnule.

–Juhendab EKA avatud akadeemia joonistamise õppejõud, graafiline disainer ja kujundaja Allan Kukk.
–Joonistusvahendid saab kohapealt.
–Töötuba on osalejale tasuta.
–Kohti on 15le inimesele, vajalik on eelnev registreerumine.

Kolmapäeval, 23. mail kell 18.00 avaneb Eesti Kunstiakadeemia fuajees (Estonia pst 7/ Teatri väljak 1) fotodokumentalistika kursuse lõpunäitus „Õu mai . . .”, mille kuraator on fotograafiaõppejõud ja kunstnik Kalev K Vapper.

Näitus on märtsis alanud EKA avatud akadeemia fotodokumentalistika kursuse viimane oluline etapp. Alates 21. märtsist on kohtutud igal kolmapäeval, saadud üha uusi ülesandeid ja väljakutseid.

„Tegu on juba neljanda kursusega, kes minu ja avatud akadeemia koostöös nüüd viimasel ajal lõpetab,” selgitab Vapper. „Sõna otseses mõttes on tähelepanuväärne, et enne eelmist näitust oli põhjusttuua jutuks nüüd juba kurikuulus Igor Mang, kel ongi õnnestunud kevad omamoodi kuumemaks kütta. Hea dokumentalistika haarab alati õhust ja aimab pisut ette. Kindlasti on ka nüüd teemasid, mis tulevikku vaatavad, selle kaudu ka olevat ja olnut näevad, mõtestavad. Näitusel on elu, surma, vabadust, kosmost ja Eiki Nestorit!”

Osalevad autorid: Alina Nurmist, Ants Koel, Eiliki Pukki, Erik Peinar, Jana Mätas, Kärt Kross-Merilo, Maria Helena Laving, Sandor Liive.

Näitus jääb avatuks kuni 27. maini. Sisse saab kl 8–22. Pühapäeval kuni kl 19.
Astuge läbi!
