They say that art is “bigger than life” – but that is only one reason to get your own copy of KUNST.EE, a quarterly magazine dedicated to the contemporary art scene and various aspects of visual culture in Estonia. All other reasons are usually already very specific, inviting the reader to focus on the artwork, to follow the artist and to critically contemplate on the results.

The following topics are discussed in this issue: What are the actual needs of popularizing contemporary art in today’s Estonia? Who needs fame anyway? Biennials, triennials, museum show, art fairs – why do we visit them? The central section of this issue is dedicated to the 55th International Art Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia. And, as a bonus, what has been going on in art galleries in Estonia for the past few months? What news and recent art books and catalogues should we read? And so on…

Stay tuned!
