Unseen Oceans. The Baltic Sea in the World Ocean.<\/a>17.10.2020-1.08.2021\"\"Sex & the Sea<\/em>Saskia Boddeke<\/strong>
08.03.2019-19.01.2020<\/strong>An exhibition of the desire and longing of seamenBeing away from home for long periods of time makes seamen forget their ordinary values and routine behaviour in order to reduce desire and longing. Does the sea reveal a man\u2019s true nature? Or does it create a new reality?
Figureheads have stood at the prow of ships for centuries, waiting patiently by the berth to take seamen far away from home. During the weeks and months on the sea, she was the only woman on board and bent every man to her will. The high seas became a canvas for the fantasy that furnished their longing. Fruit of the Seychelles palm trees that floated in the waves loomed to seamen as flesh, arousing desire in men who were far from home.
Surrounded by endless waters, living in narrow spaces and working side-by-side on routine tasks, a seaman is, nevertheless, free. He is free of rules, expectations and obligations that steer life at home, on land. Sea creates a new reality, entwining fantasy with actuality in exotic harbours.
The world that we see is poetical and practical, mysterious, and trivial with its truthful confessions and historical objects. It accommodates sensual mermaids and excruciating venereal diseases. Seamen have experienced and described such sensations for centuries. This world, common and timeless all at once, could haunt us even as spectators.
The exhibition Sex & the Sea<\/em> by Saskia Boddeke, a Dutch multimedia artist, enables us to experience the mysterious and unknown freedom of seamen.Author: Saskia Boddeke, Luperpedia Foundation

OPERATION RED TREK. ENSURING ESTONIAN FREEDOM<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Operation Red Trek. Ensuring Estonian Freedom<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

9 October 2018 \u2013 30 June 2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"The exhibition in the experience room of the Seaplane Harbour tells the story of the tense first months of the Estonian War of Independence at sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time, the First World War had just ended and a Soviet Russian invasion to the territory of the brand new Republic of Estonia was expected. Keeping the enemy at bay was possible only thanks to foreign aid and the Navy; without those, the entire Estonian War of Independence could have lost its momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the exhibition, visitors can enjoy the activities of the British squadron, led by Admiral Edwyn Alexander-Sinclair, which came to help upon request from Estonia. The exhibition shows their treacherous journey from its beginning in November 1918 to military action on the Gulf of Finland in January 1919. For the first time ever, the British squadron\u2019s exact route to Tallinn, which was riddled with minefields, can be seen on a digital map.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously unpublished material has been used in the exhibition, which also provides information about the complicated and even chaotic situation of the initial months of the War of Independence. In addition to the actions of the Navy, we can see the political will of the United Kingdom to give public support to the attempts of the Baltic countries to reach independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These events, which started a friendship between Estonia and the United Kingdom that persists to this day, are also described in the online exhibition that complements the exhibits at the Seaplane Harbour: ukandestonia.ee<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

100 YEARS ON WATER. THE SHIPS OF ESTONIA 1918\u20132018<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The fate of a country by the sea is inextricably tied to its ships, which carried people off and brought them back, as well as saved them and helped them flee, marked the start of war and the beginning of peace, depicted happiness and heartache \u2013 they were of vital importance to the country and its people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The turbulent series of events taking place from the inception of the Republic of Estonia to its 100th<\/sup> birthday is reflected in the fates of our ships. \u2018100 years on water. The ships of Estonia 1918\u20132018\u2019, an exhibition at the Estonian Maritime Museum, will bring their exciting and remarkable stories before us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each year of the period of 1918\u20132018 is represented by one ship, in connection with which some monumental event took place during that year. It may be the year the ship was completed or the year it perished; it may also mark the crossing of the equator under the Estonian flag, fleeing to the United States from Sweden, or the launch of Baltic Sea cruises from Tallinn. All kinds of vessels are represented \u2013 passenger ships, war ships, cargo ships, sailing ships, steam ships, riverboats, etc. The exhibition is also a recognition of the people who worked, studied, or travelled on these important vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The abundant display of ship models in an impressive environment is supported by modern special solutions and a plentiful selection of illustrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story of our ships is the story of Estonia. The ebb and flow of the waters of time have brought us here today. We have spent 100 years on water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come and see the ships of the Republic of Estonia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition was open from 24.02.2018 to 13.01.2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to behave at sea or by the sea? What to do when you are in trouble? Who will come to help?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These and many other questions are answered at the new hands-on exhibition in Tallinn Seaplane Harbour. Learn more about the past and present of maritime rescue, listen to the rescuers\u2019 stories, and see a real rescue helicopter and other equipment for helping those in distress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition also provides information about how to behave more consciously at sea and by the sea, about what choices can be made in different situations and about what goes on in the head and body in a crisis situation. Survivors of the MS Estonia ferry disaster tell their stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition features many interactive exhibits and simulators. You can participate in training the rescuers, receive a distress signal as the leader of a rescue mission, test the thickness of ice on a body of water and engage in a lot of other exciting activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This exhibition concerns us all: beach-goers, fishers, ship passengers, master mariners, rescuers and rescuees. All of us have had some kind of contact with big bodies of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition has been put together in extensive cooperation with leading experts and responsible institutions of maritime rescue in Estonia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vikings: Life Beyond the Legend<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

13 August 2016 \u2013 15 January 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Viking weapons and booty displayed at the exhibition speak of bravery and conquest, but this is by no means the whole story of the Vikings. Advanced handicrafts, fine gold and silver jewellery, Arabic coins and skilfully forged weapons and tools speak of highly developed blacksmithing and close trade relations with neighbouring countries. The exhibition consists of over 500 Viking Age finds. It includes original coins, weapons, household tools, talismans, bones and ship details that shed entirely new light on our knowledge of the Vikings, their trade, conquests, magic, beliefs and daily life. The exhibition has been organized by the Swedish History Museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Race to the End of the Earth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

29 August 2015 \u2013 3 April 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This large joint exhibition is about one of the most dramatic chapters in the history of exploration: the story of conquering the South Pole. Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen and British Navy officer Robert Falcon Scott started their expeditions in 1911 almost simultaneously. Both reached the destination but only one of them returned home. Race to the End of the Earth describes and depicts both teams\u2019 equipment and tactics, and the daily life, thoughts and moods of the men. This exhibition has been organized by the American Museum of Natural History, New York, US, and Mus\u00e9e des Confluences, Lyon, France, and the Royal British Columbia Museum, Victoria, Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TITANIC: The Artifact Exhibition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

15 November 2013 \u2212 31 March 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition will feature more than 150 original items salvaged from the bottom of the ocean around the wreck of Titanic at the depth of approximately 4 kilometres. The reconstructions of a number of the Ship\u2019s rooms will take us back to the year 1912, when faith in technical progress was virtually unwavering and Titanic, the world\u2019s biggest and most luxurious passenger Ship of her time, seemed to embody the almightiness of humankind.
