Karin Luts: Pictures from Travels

Through drawings, paintings and diaries, this exhibition studies the importance of travelling in the life and work of the artist Karin Luts (1904–1993). According to tradition, Luts recorded her travel impressions as drawings or watercolours, and sometimes on canvas. She did not consider her travel scenes to be real art, but something similar to photography, the only difference being the manual recording. The exhibition, which introduces the work of one of the most outstanding Estonian women artists at the beginning of the last century, focuses on watercolours and sketches from trips to Italy, Spain, France and her new homeland, Sweden.

The exhibition takes place in cooperation with the Tartu Art Museum.
