The colour red, which offers a variety of possible scenarios, different shades of meaning and metaphors, has been interpreted freely by the artists. What binds artists’ works together is the complex character of this intense colour – its ability to grab, bind and store.

At this year’s annual exhibition ¨ Colour – red¨ 17 Estonian glass artists’ interpretations of red in glass are presented, carefully selected by a 3-member jury consisting of ceramicist and associate professor Ingrid Allik, jewellery artist and gallerist Maria Valdma and artist, lecturer Urmas Lüüs.
