The biographical film Art is the Only Way<\/em> Out on the life of Konrad M\u00e4gi premiered at S\u00f5prus Cinema and on Estonian Television on 1 November.
\nThe film director Marianne K\u00f5rver\u2019s documentary film tells of the life and work of the painter Konrad M\u00e4gi. According to the film\u2019s author, what interested her most in creating this film was M\u00e4gi\u2019s contradictory and at times inscrutable personality, different aspects of which carry over into his creative work as well. The passionate and self-destructive story of M\u00e4gi\u2019s metaphysical quests and of a kind of mystique that surrounds both his life and his oeuvre provide the viewer with the opportunity to relate to his art in a very personal and viscerally appreciated way.
\nTiina Abel, T\u00f5nu \u00d5nnepalu, Eha Komissarov, Veiko \u00d5unpuu, Jaan Toomik, Hasso Krull, Lauri Sommer, Marek Tamm, Jaan Elken and Kristi Kongi open up on the broader background of M\u00e4gi\u2019s oeuvre and on how they relate personally to the artist\u2019s creative work.
\nThe film\u2019s premiere commemorated the 142nd anniversary of the birth of Konrad M\u00e4gi. The Konrad M\u00e4gi Foundation\u2019s 5,000 euro award was given to the film\u2019s director Marianne K\u00f5rver for presenting the life and work of Konrad M\u00e4gi, the most important painter in Estonian art history, in Estonia and abroad in 2019-2020.<\/p>\n
