Many different cultures and peoples have passed across the relatively small territory of our state during the centuries, and all have left their traces in some form or another. The twists of history are an eternal subject for artists and writers, and although our country is small in its population, it is great and rich in its art, literature and culture. These recount the story of our people and so help to tell it to the wider world. We are proud to be able to say that art in Estonia continues to develop in many ways. The range of exhibitions at home and the international efforts of Estonian artists and curators shape the contemporary face of Estonian art. It should also be noted that Estonia has had a national pavilion at the Venice Biennale since 1997, one of the great events of cultural affairs and the oldest and best- known of art exhibitions.

    t r A n a i n o t s E 7 1 0 2 / 1 Estonian Art 1/2017 On Post-Internet Art This issue of Estonian Art focuses on the phenomena of post- internet art. Inspired by Katja Novitskova, who is representing Estonia with ‘If Only You Could See What I’ve Seen with Your Eyes’ at the 57th Venice Biennale this year, we dig into the influential international art movement. As the term post-internet art itself is often misunderstood, for the purposes of this issue we will use a simple definition: all art that has been influenced by the experience of network culture and acknowledges the ontology and influence of the cyber, the digital and the glowing, pervasive screen. As with media art, its lifespan and relevance seem to exist on a different temporal plane. Some have claimed that post-internet art is dead: if so let this be an autopsy, if it squirms a vivisection. Themes of post-apocalyptic survival, the anthropocene and the ubiquitous post-internet fern come together in a movement that merges art with design and has fooled observers into thinking the portrayal of the corporate is itself corporate: the shadows on the cave wall again. The post-internet movement and its wake are approached from many different angles with articles and visual essays by seventeen authors.
