But the issue is by no means solely one of aesthetics \u2013 those ship\u2019s funnels, cranes, containers, warehouses, and all manner of machinery that blend into the cityscape have provided the people of Tallinn with work, Baltic herring and bread, and have been the driving force behind the city\u2019s development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panoramic views and more detailed glimpses of Tallinn\u2019s harbours have been a source of inspiration for artists throughout the centuries. Although the port is primarily an industrial and technical environment, artists have long considered it an important subject to depict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The organiser and sponsor of this exhibition is Port of Tallinn \u2013 Estonia\u2019s largest complex of cargo and passenger ports, which, thanks to its innovative approach and cutting-edge technology, is a leading port in the entire Baltic Sea region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to its economic success story, Port of Tallinn also holds art in high regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curator: Tiit Pruuli&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Project manager: Kadi Karine&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exhibition design: Mae Kivilo&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Language\u202fediting\u202fand\u202ftranslations:\u202fHille Salu\u00e4\u00e4r, t\u00f5lkeb\u00fcroo\u202fInterlex&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Construction: Monetta O\u00dc&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Printing: POS Print&nbsp;O\u00dc&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Technical\u202fsolutions:\u202fHelina\u202fTorv, Valter Vaht, T\u00f5nis Veltman&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Animation, projection mapping: Lauri Laasik &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Transport of artworks: Plado Art Services O\u00dc&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Installation of artworks:\u202fValge\u202fKuup\u202fO\u00dc, Oksana Leontjeva \u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marketing graphics:\u202fAndres Tali &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marketing\u202fproject\u202fmanager:\u202fIris Tomson\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Communication:\u202fLaura Maide\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Private collections: the J\u00f5eleht&nbsp;family, Olav Osolin, Sven Pertens, Tiit Pruuli, David P\u00e4rnamets, Mait Sooaru<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Art Museum of Estonia, Estonian Maritime Museum, Tartu Art Museum&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Special\u202fthanks\u202fto:\u202f&nbsp;Darja Andrejeva, Sirle Arro, Laura Jamsja, T\u00f5nu Joonas, Herman Hendrik J\u00f5geva, Valdo Kalm, Mihkel Karu, Marika Korolev, Eve Paavel, Maria V\u00e4insar, Pro Air O\u00dc, ArtSmart\u202fprindistuudio &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sponsor: AS Tallinna Sadam&nbsp;\/ Port of Tallinn&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Artists\u2019 Views 19.11.2026\u201328.02.2026 The skyline of Tallinn\u2019s Old Town, together with its harbours \u2013 commonly known as the \u2018sprat-tin view\u2019 \u2013 is as much a landmark for Estonians as the&#8230;","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-7640","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 -
