The Tallinn Photomonth international photography biennial will be held for the eighth time this year in Tallinn from September 5 to October 31. The main programme consists of three different exhibitions.<\/p>\n
The biennial will open with a joint exhibition by renowned Estonian artists Tanja Muravskaja<\/b> and Sirje Runge<\/b>. The exhibition will be held at the Kai Art Centre. The programme also includes a photography exhibition in Tallinn’s public urban space and a joint exhibition of Estonian and Finnish photography artists at the Hobusepea and FOKU galleries.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year\u2019s Tallinn Photomonth programme features three different exhibitions, each examining the growing role of photography in a world saturated with images. Photography is increasingly present in everyday life, but art offers space for reflection and the opportunity to develop visual literacy,\u201d says Kulla Laas<\/b>, director of the biennial.<\/p>\n
The joint exhibition by Tanja Muravskaja and Sirje Runge is curated by M\u0117ta Valiu\u0161aityt\u0117<\/b> (France\/Lithuania). The exhibition brings together works in a dialogical way, and explores materiality and different ways of perceiving photography.<\/p>\n
The programme traditionally includes bringing art into public spaces. This year’s Urban Space exhibition curators Kati Ots<\/b> (Estonia) and Trine Stephensen<\/b> (Norway) explore how photography can function not only as a visual image but also as a sculptural element that creates a certain space, and influences how that space is experienced.<\/p>\n
One of the most significant innovations is the first joint project with Finland. The Estonian Association of Photographic Artists (FOKU) is collaborating with its Finnish counterpart (VTL) to organise a joint exhibition, which will be shown simultaneously at the Hobusepea and FOKU galleries. The project aims to increase cooperation between Estonians and Finns in making and curating art. A meeting and a public discussion panel for professionals in the field will be organised in connection with the exhibition. The exhibition series, which began in Tallinn, will continue in Finland in 2026.<\/p>\n
