PAUL RODGERS
Born in England and living and working in Estonia since independence from the Soviet Union, I have been producing sculpture, installations and video works and photography and exhibiting in Estonia and internationally. I am also the curator of a number of international exhibitions. In addition, I am also a lecturer at the Estonian Academy of Arts in Tallinn, the Pallas Art Academy in Tartu and a teacher in Kohila High School, Raplamaa. I am a member of the artists group “Estonian Energies”. I was holder of the "Ela ja sära" award for art in Estonia 2009/10 and have received numerous grants and awards from the Estonian Art Foundation and the Estonian Artists association. Showing locally and abroad my work is in the collections of the Estonian Art Museum and the Tartu Art Museum as well as private collectors. I have tutored Bachelor, Masters and PhD students at the Estonian Academy and was instrumental in establishing the Interdisciplinary Arts Department at the academy. In England, following my studies, I was also the director of an artist co-operative (St Etheldreda Art Studios) for 10 years and a lecturer in sculpture.
