Catalogue “Jaan Punga. Eestartutaga”

Jaan Punga (b. 1948) is a painter and art teacher from Tartu, whose work prominently features architectural elements and portraits from his hometown. His paintings are characterized by a geometric approach that emphasizes architectural form.

The catalog addresses Jaan Punga’s Tartu-specific artwork. The cityscape painted by Punga is not the conventional impressionistic impression or a photorealistic fragment of the urban space found in Estonian art. Social criticism also remains distant for the artist—Punga focuses on more enduring subjects on his canvases than today’s social issues. His art is, to some extent, timeless, aiming to create an aesthetic whole. To convey his message, Punga employs architecture, the essential geometry and clarity of thought of which resonate with him.
