Like all avantgardists of his day, Konrad Mägi (1878-1925) sought a connection with the European spirit, but in his art he created his own painting philosophy and interpretation of the influences of the era.

Edited by Pilvi Kalhama, this volume traces the enigma of Konrad Mägi's art outside the mainstream of conventional art history. The themes explored in the essays include the microecologies of Mägi's works, his paintings' seductive colours and the conception of beauty as a decadent emotional experience.

Konrad Mägi:The Enigma of Painting solo exhibition at 29.9.2021 - 23.1.2022, Emma - Espoon modernin taiteen museo.
