Spanish art was not familiar with landscape painting until the 19th century, when questions of Spanish identity and national image emerged. During the period of the country’s modernisation, opposing approaches to the representation of its land clashed: the idea of a bright and lively ‘white Spain’ and a bleak, serious ‘black Spain’, rooted in its cultural heritage. Between and alongside these poles, Catalan modernist painting blossomed at the turn of the century, bringing together the picturesqueness and colourfulness of the former and the intellectualism of the latter.

Film director Sebastián and producer Costa have decided to make a film about Christopher Columbus and the discovery of America. Bolivia has been chosen as the location, as it is the cheapest country in South America and has the largest indigenous population in South America. However, it seems that history is about to repeat itself, as in Cochacamba, the location chosen for the film, a Bolivian water war (April 2000) breaks out over the sale of water to a multinational corporation, which has pushed up the price of water to unaffordable levels for the locals. “Forbidden Rain is a film about filmmaking, but it is also an ambitious and successful combination of the intersections of religion, justice, politics and art. The film was nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film at the Spanish Film Academy and was an audience favourite at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Curator: Francisco Martínez.
Designer: Viktor Gurov
Artists: Anna Škodenko, Evgeny Fedorov, Eléonore de Montesquiou, Francisco Martínez, Sanna Kartau, Varvara & Mar, Viktor Gurov.
This exhibition is inspired by the library left behind in the School n. 1 of Sillamäe, an institution that was closed in 1999. Subsequently, the building hosted the ECOMEN Institute of Economics & Management for seven years before being abandoned.
In Latin, ex libris referred to anything that comes out of the books. In Medieval times, the term started to be used in relation to a book owner’s identification label. Now, the library has been intruded by a series of artists, re-appropriating its materials in a parasitical way.
The books are still present, alas they do not always make sense in the present. Nonetheless, their ideas and aesthetics keep on fermenting otherwise. Burden or delayed gift, the library is available for novel relations of exchange.
But what kind of knowledge is lost when a library disappears? How can we accommodate what does not fit in the present? And what can we learn by looking into the things we left behind?
A minibus Tallinn-Sillamäe-Tallinn is provided to attend the opening, on the 4th of May. To register, please contact: francisco.martinez@tuni.fi & viktor.gurov@artun.ee

Mark your calendar! Spanish writer Isaac Rosa will hold an open talk in Spanish.
Isaac Rosa’s novel, “Final feliz” (translated by Marianne Ots), delves into the possibility of love in the contemporary world, as well as economic insecurity, the dream of living in the countryside, parenthood, blended families, sexuality, and fidelity. Rosa addresses these themes with a humanity that surprises with its frankness, ensuring they transcend passing trends. Metaphors imbue a sensitive poetry into what might appear as an ordinary story, while the dialogue between man and woman sets the pace of action and emotions, fluctuating from calm to intensity, rendering the text almost spatial. The narrative is presented retrospectively, with a reverse chronology, from the happy ending to the first encounter, traversing through the resolution of the relationship.
The novel commences with an epilogue, which you can read here.

France has more than 200 football clubs of Portuguese origin in its amateur leagues.

Event Details
Javier Marías has written 16 novels, won dozens of awards in various countries, and has been translated into nearly 50 languages. He has served as a professor of Spanish literature at the universities of Oxford and Madrid, and has written columns for the daily newspaper El País. Marías is also influential as a translator of English literature into Spanish, having translated works by Sterne, Faulkner, Nabokov, Salinger, and others. His novels previously translated into Estonian include “A Heart So White” (translated by Marin Mõttus, Varrak 2002) and “The Oxford Romance or All Souls” (translated by Kai Aareleid, Varrak 2012), as well as a collection of writers’ biographies, “Written Lives” (translated by Maria Kall, LR 2010).
His recently published novel “The Infatuations” (Spanish “Los enamoramientos”), originally released in 2011, is Marías’s first novel narrated by a woman. True to his style, the author employs repetitive thoughts and quotes, constructs long sentences, delves deeply into controversial episodes of famous literary works, and questions truth, justice, loyalty, and reliability, all while bringing to the surface dark thoughts and obsessions. Based on the plot summary, the book could easily be classified under the crime or thriller genre. More information.
Attendance is free, and participants can buy the novel “The Infatuations” at the publisher’s price (card payment is also available). The discussion evening will take place during Iberofest, a festival dedicated to the culture of Spanish-speaking countries, with the support of the Embassy of Spain in Estonia and Toledo Publishing House.
