Hanseatic Days Haromaticansea ttaritcu Days 19-21 July 2013 www.hansapaevad.ee See you in Tartu! Dear townspeople and visitors! It is a great pleasure to welcome you all back to Tartu Hanseatic Days. This year Tartu Hanseatic Days will enter into adulthood – this festivity will take place for the 18 times. Tartu Hanseatic Days have become one of the main events in the town; townspeople consider the event to be a natural part of the year and wait for it as anxiously as for the migratory birds or the first snow. Hereby, the name for the festivities became Tartu Aromatic Hanseatic Days. Scents play an important role in our lives, although we usually do not notice them. Already from the childhood we remember the special scents: pancakes made by mother, grandma’s garden, and vernal bird-cherries on the river bank… These days will add both new and exciting scents as well as old and familiar ones among the Tartu scents. The Hanseatic Days will not take place only because of the yearning for the Middle Ages: they combine together the past, present and the future of Tartu. Our town soon to be one thousand years old is full of rich and exciting life. I invite you all to participate. Urmas Kruuse, Mayor of Tartu How to discover your home town? One way is through the nose. Take a sniff of how the river smells. How sweetly woodpiles ripen and asphalt melts. How the trash rack on the same alley corner always awaits for you with the aroma. Going up from the hall stairs you know that someone is frying potatoes. From the café’s kitchen window you catch a smell of bread. Wintery cold front hall with the loo and cats. Tõdõk-tõdõk from the oily iron train. Let’s take a sniff of our Tartu! Ants Johanson, Project Manager 2 MAIN EVENTS OF TARTU HANSEATIC DAYS Friday, 19 July at 19 Town Hall Square – FESTIVE OPENING OF THE AROMATIC HaNSEATIC DAYS and dance evening “INCLINING TOWARDS JAZZ” with Tartu Big Band in front of the main building of the University of Tartu.

Here you can see different artists and painters, drawers, portraitists and simple doodlers. Creators of design and applied art – those who are already famous and those who strive for it. The king of Toome Art Town is a confident street artist who is doing his own thing, exposing his skills, personality and uniqueness. He is a free and independent citizen who comes and goes whenever he wants. His studio is there where he is and he is always surrounded by admirers, fans and enviers. Ramblers have an opportunity to see and take part in the creation process, and compare various interpretations of the same sights. Talk to the artist himself, participate or buy works and to paint and draw together with the artists. Come with your own drawing block and paint box to join the creative company. 6 PROGRAM The IMPRO tent works as an open studio where various short courses, trainings, discussions and presentations are held during two days. In the PORTREE (portrait) area you can experience the roles of a model and an artist depending on which seat you take. TÄNAVAKUNSTNIK (street artist) works in privacy; moves around with his easel or has built up an illustrative master class where he works with his technique. STUUDIOKUNSTNIK (studio artist) creates an improvised studio or atelier on spot and works with still-life, model or cave painting. It is always fascinating to watch a man working. DEKOOR and TARBEKUNST (decor and applied art) is such a broad area which includes restorers, textile, clay and glass masters. It is especially exciting to see the overpainting of furniture, dress shield or some other item of applied art. DISAIN (design) is an environment that is full of surprises, the game of form and materials. This is a place for working with the main task of design – solving a problem. GALERII; EKSPOSITSIOON (gallery, exposition) brings extra colours to park sights, makes people slow the pace, offers an opportunity get to know the works, the previous and the ones made on spot, of the artists of the Art Town. The area of KLUBI (club) combines various unions, art clubs and people who share the previous or current exhibitions, hobbies, or art studies. Art town is a place for being and working together. Spontaneity and self-generating processes, air, fragrances and atmosphere can be found here. 7 ChILDREN’S TOWN Saturday, 20 July – 11.00–17.00 Sunday, 21 July – 11.00–15.00 As children, so is the Children’s Town mobile. This year Children’s Town is located on the bank of Toome Hill, between the Science Town and the Art town. It is a place where laughter, screams and joy of play will overflow the hill. You can test your skills in various games and competitions, practice trading skills, befriend with dif- ferent animals and do many exciting things.

  • Reflections on the Production of the Finno-Ugric Exhibitions at the Estonian National Museum
    THE ETHICS OF ETHNOGRAPHIC ATTRACTION: REFLECTIONS ON THE PRODUCTION OF THE FINNO-UGRIC EXHIBITIONS AT THE ESTONIAN NATIONAL MUSEUM SVETLANA KARM Researcher Estonian National Museum Veski 32, 51014 Tartu, Estonia e-mail: [email protected] ART LEETE Professor of Ethnology University of Tartu Ülikooli 18, 50090 Tartu, Estonia e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT We intend to explore* the production of the Finno-Ugric exhibitions at the Esto- nian National Museum. Our particular aim is to reveal methodological changes of ethnographic reproduction and to contextualise the museum’s current efforts in ideologically positioning of the permanent exhibition. Through historical–herme- neutical analysis we plan to establish particular museological trends at the Esto- nian National Museum that have led curators to the current ideological position. The history of the Finno-Ugric displays at the Estonian National Museum and comparative analysis of international museological practices enable us to reveal and interpret different approaches to ethnographic reconstructions. When exhib- iting indigenous cultures, one needs to balance ethnographic charisma with the ethics of display. In order to employ the approach of ethical attraction, curators must comprehend indigenous cultural logic while building up ethnographic rep- resentations. KEYWORDS: Finno-Ugric • permanent exhibition • museum • ethnography • ethics INTRODUCTION At the current time the Estonian National Museum (ENM) is going through the process of preparing a new permanent exhibition space. The major display will be dedicated to Estonian cultural developments. A smaller, although still significant, task is to arrange the Finno-Ugric permanent exhibition. The ENM has been involved in research into the Finno-Ugric peoples as kindred ethnic groups to the Estonians since the museum was * This research was supported by the European Union through the European Regional Devel- opment Fund (Centre of Excellence in Cultural Theory, CECT), and by the Estonian Ministry of Education and Research (projects PUT590 and ETF9271).

A wide range of artisans were surveyed in the course of this research, from professionals who earn a living from handicraft to amateurs, small enterprises and handicraft instructors. The authors concentrate on the motifs and background of different categories of handicraft agent. Details of handicraft practice such as mastering spe- cific items, local peculiarities and materials used will be also explored. The analy- sis is predominantly based on the artisans’ views on proper ways of making handi- craft items, their marketing strategies and the needs of developing their skills. The study* demonstrates that artisanal initiatives support the material reproduction of cultural locations through constant renewal of heritage ideology and practice. KEYWORDS: crafts • artisans • heritage • hobby • woodwork * We would like to thank all informants, workshop participants and supporters.

    1 A Short Guide to Living in Tartu, Estonia This guide was written by a Nebraska Wesleyan University (NWU) professor and Fulbright Scholar who taught at the University of Tartu from August 2011 – June 2012. The opinions expressed here are those of the professor, her husband and children (ages 12 and 8) who made discoveries about what to bring, where to eat and which Estonian phrases to master through trial and error. Their opinions do not reflect those of the US State Department or NWU. This guide is designed to supplement the materials students receive from NWU and the University of Tartu, and those that scholars receive from the US State Department and the American Embassy in Tallinn. What to Bring Euros (about 300€ to get started) A credit card with no currency exchange fees Umbrella Winter coat, scarf, hat, mittens, water-proof boots (woolens can be purchased here, see below) Excellent walking shoes (Estonians wear sneakers, but not bright white ones) Insect repellant (only spring semester) Any brand name personal item that you cannot live without (deodorant, shampoo, feminine hygiene products, contact lens solution, etc.) These products are widely available here, but in fewer brands.

  • July 2016 World Orienteering Championships 2017 Tartu
    BULLETIN 2 July 2016 World Orienteering Championships 2017 Tartu - Estonia 30.06.-07.07.2017 WELCOME TO ESTONIA! I am glad to welcome you to Estonia to attend the World Orienteering Championships in Tartu. I would encourage you to discover more of the cosiest country and our p rettiest countryside with only 1.3 million inhabitants and 45 thousand squre kilometres of land. Some call Estonia the smartest country as it produces more start-ups per capita than any other country in Europe. Our small country has become the best in e-democracy and e-government, being the first in the world to introduce online political voting. Needless to say, there is a WiFi-net that covers nearly all of the territory. Estonians have an identity card that allows us to access over 1,000 public services online, like healthcare and paying taxes. Being one of the most digitally advanced nations in the world, we decided to start the e-residency project and letting people from around the world become digital residents of Estonia online. Here you can start a new company online fastest, just in under 20 minutes. We love innovation but we value our roots. Estonians have one of the biggest collections of folk songs in the world, with written records of 133,000 folk songs. Our capital Tallinn is the best preserved medieval city in Northern Eu- rope. You might say Estonia is also the greenest country as forests cover about 50% of the territory, or around 2 million hectares. It is one of the most sparsely populated countries in Europe, but there are over 2,000 islands, 1,000 lakes and 7,000 rivers.
