"SCRIPTA MANENT"
EXHIBITION
This exhibition continues the tradition of artistic bookbinding in Estonia and is based on pieces of children's creative writing from the fairytale competition and the magazine "Good Child." The young authors were 7 to 15 years old. The collection, entitled "The Best Thing in the World", features 22 fairytales and poems written by children and provide a vivid picture of life in Estonia. The pleasant humor and sharp irony of youth, the mix of traditional fairytales and the creation of brand-new ones has offered inspiration to 130 artists from 17 countries.
The exhibition can be seen in the Estonian Museum of Applied Art and Design (Lai Street 17, Tallinn)
