In the summer of 2025, visitors to the 19th Century Citizen\u2019s Museum can enjoy works by artists who have studied or are currently studying at the Konrad M\u00e4gi Studio. A second exhibition, titled “After the Solstice”, presents oil pastels by the artist Silja H\u00e4rm\u00a0<\/strong>(born in 1969).<\/p><\/p>\n\n Silja H\u00e4rm studied painting at the Pallas Art Association Studio (earlier the Konrad M\u00e4gi Studio) from 1989 to 1994 under the guidance of Kaja K\u00e4rner and Heldur-Jaan Viirres. She has exhibited her works since 1990 and has held around ten solo exhibitions, featuring mainly abstract paintings focused on color.<\/p>\n\n In addition to painting, Silja H\u00e4rm has also studied theology and worked as a librarian and lecturer. She is a member of the Pallas Art Association.<\/p>\n\n The exhibition at the 19th Century Citizen\u2019s Museum features oil pastels created either on-site in nature or abstracted from impressions of nature. The title “After the Solstice”\u00a0refers both to the timing of the exhibition and to the natural impressions captured in the paintings. The artist explains that after the solstice, the light begins to change and gradually takes on the tones of the coming season.<\/p>\n\n The exhibition is open at the 19th Century Citizen\u2019s Museum from June 18 to July 13.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14218,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[66],"class_list":["post-14452","exhibition","type-exhibition","status-archive","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-19th-century-tartu-citizens-home-museum"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
