Kallis Aili! Ole Sa tänatud! Mulle tuli mõistus pähe, kui lugesid ette Oti luuletuse, mis lõpes nii:…. Raha on, aga aega ei ole. Hoopis hale.

2019 in Kumu Art Museum: Open Collections. The Artist Takes the Floor invites visitors to walk through a forest of art history and sees to it that the walk is a meandering journey, taking museum-goers from main paths to enjoyable side trails which have not yet been fully assessed and categorised in art history.In inviting the artists, the curator considered their creative profiles with the aim of involving different media. Several invited artists made the initial choice of pieces of interest based on the electronic museum database MuIS and the digital collection of the Art Museum of Estonia, which was followed by actual work with the collection. The works of art on exhibit cover the period from the 17th to the 21st centuries.
This project curated by Maria Arusoo is centred around the theme of the female body in Aili Vint’s prints and the Serbian artist Ivana Bašić’s sculptures.

2016 Soviet Hippies are present at the two exhibitions: PEACE AND LOVE at Malmö Moderna Museetisses and
2016 Soviet Hippies, psychedelic underground of 1970s, Estonia, at London's Red Gallery
/ Nõukogude hipi / YouTube)
Soviet Hippies, a new exhibition at London's Red Gallery, takes visitors back to Soviet Estonia to step into a parallel universe — the hippie movement that existed within the Brezhnev regime. Curated by KIWA and Terje Toomistu, the exhibition is based on an in-depth anthropological study, which saw the pair interview 15 people who were part of the hippie movement in the “Soviet West”, as Estonia was known owing to its bohemian feel and rock music scene. Visitors to Soviet Hippies will be able to get a privileged insight into the experience of this generation, with the interview films and a rich array of archive photography due to be shown at the exhibition.
Aili Vint Illustration from the book "Yellow in blue like the sun in the sky" 1979, gouache on paper,28 x 42 cm
Sometimes I get the feeling that the Sea has completely drawn me in, that it rules my thoughts and emotions. Quite often I paint the Sea in my dreams or have bizarre dreams about it. I remember a particularly clear and brightly coloured dream of myself, sitting on a slope and admiring the greenest meadow from Toomas Vint’s painting in front of me. Suddenly I heard the roar of the sea getting louder and louder, and a huge wave, stretching over the whole meadow, rumbling towards me. The wave was so transparent that I could see the blades of grass bend under it, quivering in confusion after the wave had passed. When the wave reached me, I sat quietly and just lifted my elbows to let the wave roll past me. When I looked behind me, I saw that I was sitting by a boundless expanse of water, created by the wave. But I was bone dry. That puzzled me most in this dream – how I could have remained dry in this huge whirl of water? The fact that a gigantic wave had rolled across a green meadow felt completely natural to me.

2014-2015 Aili Vint's and Toomas Vint's exhibition: ARTIST'S FOOTPRINT, Tallinn Art Hall, Estonia
Together with Toomas Vint,
it was our pleasure to bestow, on all the visitors at the Tallinn Art Hall, the warmth of summer in the middle of a cold and dark northern winter. The sun rose and set at our exhibit – for a whole month! Never mind that it did so in paintings and installations!
It was our intent to impart visitors, as they entered the Art Hall, with the right frame of mind. To that end we prepared a surprise for the people rushing in from the winter gloom, feeling all too grey. They could see the sun rising in the display window, and upon entering they were walking on grass and the scent of fresh-mown hay tickled their noses!
THE SUN SET AND RISES FROM THE TALLINN ART HALL 2014-2015 Time-and-Space Specific Light Installation.
It is a 30000 x 900 x 1400 cm expanse of sky where on light itself mixes the colours of the sunset, and so subtly that no artist could equal it.

THE SUN SETS ON & RISES FROM THE ART HALL
Story how light meditative sculpture and with it my first performance spontaneously was born in Tallinn Art Hall
Aili Vint: In Estonian there is a beautiful word KUMA (GLOW) that means reception of ones surroundings and at the same time a desire to give back even more generously. For example the glow of the sun reflected on a child’s face or the glowing reflection of sky on the sea. Light Sculpture of Sunset is a piece that was already conceived in my childhood, although it materialized only in 1995, when the renovation of Tallinn Art Hall was completed but all its rooms were still empty.
This performance took place in October 1995, in May, when our Northern summer had not yet begun. The event lasted for two days. During the first day people were enjoying the beach and sent off the Sun. The next morning everyone gathered to greet the real sunrise.

Estonian design in the second half of the Soviet period – the 1970s and 1980s – was marked by significant overlap and interactions with art. Many artists, designers and architects were active in both fields. Artists trained in applied arts frequently designed items for mass production or crafted limited-edition studio pieces, while those who had studied design or architecture also created works of fine art. The borders between the categories of art were also blurred for the artists themselves, whose works, despite the artists’ different backgrounds, were often inspired by the same problems and driven by similar impulses.
