Opening date : 26 April 2006, 4 pm
From 27 April to 7 may : W-M, 12 am - 6 pm
We are delighted to announce a new stop of the touring part of Emergency Biennale in Chechnya to be taking place in Tallinn, Estonia, one of the ex bastions of Soviet union which remained occupied from the end of 2nd world war until the regained independence in 1991. Like in Riga, Latvia, where was occurred the last stop of Emergency Biennale, Tallinn represents a significant aspect of the project as to involve this region in activating the public opinion and human memory – almost half of the population of both cities is Russian.

Emergency Biennale in Chechnya has been invited by Johannes Saar , curator of the Center for Contemporary Arts in Estonia, and is a collaboration with Tallinn Art Hall and the artists of its current exhibition "Violence and Propaganda" (08/04 – 28/05), Elin Kard, Marco Laimre, Marko Mäetamm and Andres Tali, who felt honoured to host and give a place to itinerant Emergency Biennale from 26/04 to 07/05 as to synergize the both events. Johannes Saar explains : "Having seen Emergency Biennale in Riga and knowing what our four artist are coming up with, I have this idea of organizing one exhibition within the other - one embracing the other while both are addressing same issues : violence, brainwashing, media cultivated world view, silent acceptance of what is going on in Chechenia ."

On this occasion, Emergency Biennale in Chechnya welcomes the estonian artists Neeme Külm , Marco Laimre , Marko Mäetamm and Jüri Ojaver who gave an artwork in two examplaries : one for the next suitcase going to Grozny,  the second for the present show and the next stops of the world tour that will end up in Grozny too.

>> CONFERENCE DAY : "The moral choices of an artist in cultural conflicts"
27th April, from 10.30 am to 7.00 pm
organized by Center for Contemporary Arts of Estonia, at Tallinn Art Hall.
This one day conference will gather philosophers, critics and artists with different educational backgrounds as to question the chances and the need of artists to express their opinion about the strained relations between liberal democracy and Islam. An encounter which attempts to discuss whether unrestricted practising of individual freedom and creation will lead to the collapse of civil society, and in the longer term, to the emergence of control society…
Speakers include Margit Sutrop , Tartu University Centre of Ethics ; Johannes Saar , Center for Contemporary Arts in Estonia ; Marek Järvik , Tartu University Centre of Ethics, Ene-Liis Semper & Eero Epner , Theatre N099 ; Marco Laimre , artist ; Pirjo Honkasalo , film-maker from Finland.

The event is supported by the Estonian Cultural Endowent.

>> A bilingual catalogue gathering these interrelated events will be published soon.
