VIRGE LOO PORTFOLIO Virgeloo.Tumblr.Com Loovirge@Gmail.Com VIRGE LOO PORTFOLIO virgeloo.tumblr.com [email protected] SAH SAH (2015) Sah Sah explores ideas about our connectedness with environments by looking at sound as a phenomena that is able to shape our nature in a longer period of time. The title derives from an Estonian word “sahin” which describes the sound of rustling tree leaves. This inspiring natural phenomena is the core of a personal sound memory and is related to artist’s cultural background. This art project gives a peek into a Nordic mindset and investigates if a geocultural phenomena could be universally perceived. An interwoven set of works were created by visualising the characteristics of sound in a still image and using these painted images to set the sound in motion again – thus creating a circle of transitions. Sah Sah consists of ink paintings, video and sound. The sound was designed by Sander Saarmets. Sah Sah consists of series of seven large scale (95x180cm) and 45 smaller (30x20cm) ink paintings. Sah Sah video (10:10) was made in collaboration with Sander Saarmets. Video: youtu.be/_ctjiDVyq84 Works shown at solo exhibition SAH SAH 8/05 – 12/05/2015 thesahsahs.tumblr.com WORK IN PROGRESS (2015) Work in Progress focused on my creative process. By mapping various elements and activities involved in creating a finalised artwork, the audience got a glimpse into artist’s creative process. The visually organised “mind map” on a blackboard was a temporary and developing (representation of) work in progress. The exhibition space was set up like a studio, with tools and objects, unfinished potential artworks and leftovers. During the exhibition time I engaged in creative work on site, so that the staged setting became a real studio. The audience saw behind the scenes of my daily life and artistic practices. A special installation online blog was a part of the work and recorded my activities during the exhibition. Daily Drawings As a part of Work in Progress I started a series of drawings on a blackboard which developed and changed over time. It was unplanned, spontaneous and constantly changing as I wiped off previous drawings, but kept some of their traces. Sah Sah Books During the exhibition time I made several artist books by using the paintings that hadn’t been mounted and were left out from my solo exhibition Sah Sah. I see these books as more tangible and physical satellites to other paintings in Sah Sah series. The form of a book as an object engages the viewer to interact and read it as each has accustomed to thus making the interpretation more intimate. Sah Sah books were made of original paintings bound into one of a kind books in three sizes - small (15x13cm, 25 pages), medium (30x20cm, 30 pages) and slightly bigger (33x33cm, 12 pages). Installation was part of group exhibition Floating on Border 12/9 - 4/10/2015 a-w-i-p.tumblr.com TWATUTIA (2016) Twatutia drawings focus on brief encounters with environments trying to capture the here and now by recording it visually. The series continues to explore environments and their influence, expanding the theme with Taipei’s urban space. The series of drawings based on locations in Dadaocheng area focus on immediate encounters with environments including its sounds, scents and light. Not being concerned with depicting reality, but capturing an impression through direct experience, leads to a more intuitive expression. These mindscapes form a visual map of personal environmental experiences from April to May in nine different locations. Each of twenty is named with date, time and exact location where it was drawn by using ink pen, watercolour pencil, rain and sun. Artist Talk & Drawing Workshop A talk was held to give some insight about my works and methods, followed by a drawing workshop. The aim of the workshop was to learn to free oneself from one’s thoughts, to draw without thinking of depicting and to sense the surroundings instead. As in automatic drawing where the hand is allowed to move randomly across the paper, applying chance and accidental mark-making, participants tried to draw freely without rational control and make use of their sensory experiences. Works shown at solo exhibition HERE/THERE 04/06 – 31/07/2016 heretheres.tumblr.com V4R1 (2016) V4R1 is a Taipei-born audiovisual entity created by two Northerners – Sander Saarmets, composer and Virge Loo, visual artist. V4R1 observes and explores layers and textures in time and space. V4R1 can be simultaneously minimalistic and massive, slow and intense. Boreal sound structures interlace with visual landscapes, creating an other-worldly atmosphere. Intensified electronic heartbeats guide listeners through an environment of microscopic and large-scale transformations. V4R1 is currently in process of making its audiovisual debut album.

  • An Examination of the Role of Nationalism in Estonia’S Transition from Socialism to Capitalism
    De oeconomia ex natione: An Examination of the Role of Nationalism in Estonia’s Transition from Socialism to Capitalism Thomas Marvin Denson IV Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Political Science Besnik Pula, Committee Chair Courtney I.P. Thomas Charles L. Taylor 2 May 2017 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Estonia, post-Soviet, post-socialist, neoliberalism, nationalism, nationalist economy, soft nativism Copyright © 2017 by Thomas M. Denson IV De oeconomia ex natione: An Examination of the Role of Nationalism in Estonia’s Transition from Socialism to Capitalism Thomas Marvin Denson IV Abstract This thesis explores the role played by nationalism in Estonia’s transition to capitalism in the post-Soviet era and the way it continues to impact the Estonian economy. I hypothesize that nationalism was the key factor in this transition and that nationalism has placed a disproportionate economic burden on the resident ethnic Russians. First, I examine the history of Estonian nationalism. I examine the Estonian nationalist narrative from its beginning during the Livonian Crusade, the founding of Estonian nationalist thought in the late 1800s with a German model of nationalism, the conditions of the Soviet occupation, and the role of song festivals in Estonian nationalism. Second, I give a brief overview of the economic systems of Soviet and post-Soviet Estonia. Finally, I examine the impact of nationalism on the Estonian economy. To do this, I discuss the nature of nationalist economy, the presence of an ethno-national divide between the Estonians and Russians, and the impact of nationalist policies in citizenship, education, property rights, and geographical location.

Yet, Saturday, June 19, 2010 the dismal financial and institutional conditions were accompanied by an unprecedented amount of intellectual-artistic freedom as well as by open bor- ders, unlimited access to hitherto unavailable (or tabooed) information, and direct contact with the Western art world. With traditional values and ideo- logical guidelines abandoned, new contexts, new territories, and new orders were explored. Museums proved receptive to global trends. This interdisciplinary conference will conquer new terrain – both thematically and methodologically. It addresses and analyses the fundamental transfor- mation process in the field of contemporary art – a process initiated by the now legendary auction organized by Sotheby’s in Moscow, 1988. The auction led to a politically motivated reassessment and com- mercial appreciation of art which until then had been associated with political dissent.

A Master’s degree does not automatically make someone’s art or ideas bett er, but it does provide greater scope for creative development. For over 100 years, the Estonian Academy of Arts has served as the national leader in art and design, and through the work of its students and alumni has created the look of Estonia. In our current time of cross-cultural exchange, EAA seeks to share our specialised knowledge — from Blacksmithing to Animation to Urban Studies and more — with eager learners from beyond our borders. And we hope to likewise be enriched by the breadth of experiences and cultures that international students bring with them. www.artun.ee/masters One of EAA’s primary aims is to be an island of freedom in a world where those whose brains are limited by standard measures try to measure our immeasurable work. In a world ruled by Excel tables, as long as art manages to fulfi l its role as a centre of resistance there is still hope.

  • A Selection of Master Theses from 20131
    ESTONIAN URBANISTS' REVIEW 14 IN ACADEMY IN ACADEMY The column "In Academy" gathers a selection of master theses on urban issues defended in spring 2013. In addition to urban studies, urban governance and architecture, urban issues are relevant for study programs from varied fields, both humanities and sciences – therefore we don't dare to claim that the list is in any way complete. But it is certain that our job market will be opened to a quite impressive number of people who are thinking about cities. Following our intuition we chose some authors to give a closer overview of their thesis. The following texts are seeds, first insights to the works and themes.

The first edition was compiled in collaboration with the Estonian Ministry of Education in 1998, the second and the third (revised) edition appeared in 2001 and 2004 respectively. This edition has been considerably revised and updated to reflect the many changes that have taken place in the course of higher education reforms in general, and in the systems of higher education cycles and qualifications in particular, including the changes in the quality assess- ment procedures. The publication is an information tool for all those concerned with higher education in its international context. It contains information about the Estonian higher education system and the higher education institutions, meant primarily for use by credential evaluation and recognition bodies, such as recognition information centres, higher education institutions and employers. This information is necessary for a better understanding of Estonian qualifications and for their fair recognition in foreign countries. Taking into account the fact that credential evaluators and competent recogni- tion authorities in other countries will come across qualifications of the former systems, this book describes not only the current higher educa- tion system and the corresponding qualifications, but also the qualifica- tions of the former systems beginning with the Soviet period.

T. (Theo) Spek 2ND READER Dr. P.D. (Peter) Groote 3RD READER Dr. T. (Tiina) Peil STUDY Master Landscape History Faculty of Arts University of Groningen DATE March 2016 3 4 Abstract The future of relics from a military past A study to the history, contemporary role and future development of 20th century military heritage at the waterfront of Tallinn, Estonia In comparison to Western Europe, the countries in Central- and Eastern Europe witnessed a complex 20th century from a geopolitical perspective, whereas numerous wars, periods of occupation and political turnovers took place. Consequently, the contemporary landscapes are bearing the military imprint of different political formations and face problems regarding the reuse and domestication of the military remnants. In this thesis, the post-military landscape at the inner-city coast of Tallinn, Estonia, has been studied. The main objective was to get insight in the historical background, contemporary role and future development of military heritage in the Tallinn Waterfront area. The research consists out of two parts. First of all, the historical layering of the Tallinn Waterfront area has been unfolded by elaborating a landscape- biographical approach and making an inventory of military remnants.
