Spiegel im Spiegel. Encounters Between Estonian and German Art from Lucas Cranach to Arvo Pärt

The Dresden State Art Collections (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden) and the Art Museum of Estonia present an ambitious collaborative exhibition exploring the intersections of Estonian and German/Saxon art in history and currently. Visitors are invited on an odyssey, framed by a dialogue between two great figures, the German painter Gerhard Richter and the Estonian composer Arvo Pärt. The journey is enriched with insights into the history of the Dresden Romantics and the history of the Baltic-German community, 20th-century art and a number of contemporary interventions.

The exhibition has been organised in collaboration with the Dresden State Art Collections (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden).
