Tallinn Photomonth is an artist led biennial of contemporary art and visual culture in Tallinn and Tartu, held for the third time this autumn. Initially started in 2011 by a group of artists working mainly with photography
and video, the biennial has surpassed medium specificity and looks at developments in art and society in a world mediated by cameras, screens and images.
The third Tallinn Photomonth starts on 17 September with the opening of Prosu(u)mer, an exhibition curated by David Raymond Conroy at the Contemporary Art Museum of Estonia. Also included in the main programme are exhibitions opening throughout the autumn at the Tallinn Art Hall and the Art Hall Gallery,
Tartu Art House and Tartmus. A satellite programme runs in Tallinn’s public and commercial galleries. The exhibitions are contextualised through a programme of public events and an education programme
for schools.
The Photographic Art Fair Estonia, the country’s first and only contemporary art fair takes place from 2 to 4 October at Telliskivi Loomelinnak, with a professional preview evening on 1 October. The Artistic Director of Tallinn Photomonth 2015 is Kristel Raesaar. Tallinn Photomonth is led by Foku, Estonian Union of Photography Artists.
