Loit Jõekalda
born 16 September, 1951, freelance graphic designer,
graduated from the Art Academy of Tallinn in 1980. His graduation work was a photo album of
Finno-Ugric peopels. Experience in serigraphy, computer graphics, photography and design. Member of
the Estonian Artists' Association and the Association of Estonian Printmakers since 1992, also
member of the Estonian Prehistoric Art Society. Exhibitions since 1976, both individual and with
Virge Jõekalda, in Estonia, Finland and France.
|
| | The Fenno-Ugria 2003 calendar includes his photos of rock art locations in Finno-Ugric
and near-by territories (Lake Onega and the White Sea in Karelia, Umba and Ponoi Rivers on the
Kola Peninsula, Atla in Norway, Hossa and Saraakallio in Finland, palaeolithic caves in the Sout
Urals, the Tom River and Hakassia in Siberia). |
| | His current exhibitions are Human and
Animal (in Hermitage, St. Petersburg, till 26
August), The Magic of Prehistoric Art (in Finland, Hämeenlinna Cultural Center, till 1 September), and
an overview exhibition of the material (photos, frotage and gypsum copies by Loit Jõekalda,
Väino Poikalainen, Eve Selisaar, Ruth Treimut) collected by the Estonian Prehistoric Art Society (in
Tallinn, Institute of History). |
| | In recent years he has had various exhibitions on prehistoric art and graphics. In the
frotage copies and serigraphic works he has used motifs from prehistoric art and united in them traces
of different times and places, attempting to thus imagine possible structures and to maintain
stability without exiting the central point of endess opportunities. |
