FREEDOM IN ART
THE ESTONIAN LITHOGRAPHIC CENTER HAS COMMISSIONED A NEW UNIQUE HAND-PRINTED PORTFOLIO OF ESTONIAN CONTEMPORARY ART CALLED “FREEDOM IN THE 21ST CENTURY.”
THE FREEDOM PORTFOLIO FEATURES 20 PERSONALLY-SIGNED WORKS OF ART BY ESTONIAN CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS SUCH AS JÜRI ARRAK, PEETER ALLIK, MARKO MÄETAMM, RAUL MEEL, MARK KOSTABI, NAVITROLLA, AND MORE THAN A DOZEN OTHER ARTISTS.
THE FREEDOM PORTFOLIO WILL BE DISPLAYED IN MAJOR CITIES GLOBALLY, TAKING ESTONIAN CULTURE TO THE ART-LOVING PUBLIC AROUND THE WORLD.
FREEDOM ON DISPLAY
THE QUESTION “WHAT IS ESTONIA?” IS TOO OFTEN ANSWERED BY STATING ITS GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION - “A SMALL COUNTRY, NEAR RUSSIA”. THE FREEDOM COLLECTION, AS DISPLAYED IN MAJOR CITIES, WILL ALLOW US TO CELEBRATE ESTONIA’S LANDMARK ANNIVERSARY WITH A BOLD, CULTURAL RESPONSE, ONE WHICH TRULY ILLUSTRATES THE STRENGTH OF OUR NATION’S CULTURE AND THROUGH IT, OUR COMMITMENT TO FREEDOM. ESTONIAN LITHOGRAPHY CENTER’S PORTFOLIO CARRIES A SIGN OF CONTINUOUS SUPPORT TOWARDS FREEDOM, FREE-MINDED AND CREATIVE PEOPLE.
PURCHASE THE COLLECTION AND SUPPORT THE FREEDOM PROJECT
THE FREEDOM COLLECTION PRESENTS AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR FRIENDS OF ART, COLLECTORS AND INVESTORS TO OWN A UNIQUE COLLECTION CREATED IN HONOR OF ESTONIA’S 100TH BIRTHDAY. THESE LIMITED-EDITION LITHOGRAPHS ARE BOTH SIGNED AND STAMPED FOR AUTHENTICITY. THE PORTFOLIO CONTAINS THE SAME 21 PIECES OF WORKS WHICH WILL BE EXHIBITED AROUND THE WORLD. THE PROJECT WILL FORMALLY BEGIN WITH PRINTINGS AS EARLY AS JUNE 2017 COMPANIED BY A DOCUMENTARY TO CHRONICLE THE PROJECT.
THE PORTFOLIO OF REPRODUCTIONS CONTAINS THE REDUCED COPIES OF LITHOGRAPHIC SHEETS IN THE ORIGINAL SIZE OF 70 X 100 CM. WE USE TRADITIONAL LARGE-SIZE LITHOGRAPHIC PRINTING STONES AND A PRINTING PRESS THAT DATES BACK TO 1924.
