Who am I? I am an Estonian too, my name is Jüri Ülesoo. On the photo you see me with my dog Josper. I''m not really the artist but I like art. Some years ago I made some oil paintings but not now. I''ll try to be the curator for some Estonian artists on the Internet and here you see my first step - Navitrolla''s Gallery (thanks to Lile Elam and Art on the Net). The problem is that few Estonian artists have computers, good communication connection and time to learn and use it. I want to Landscape show their works to the whole world and the Internet is the best tool for it. Until the artist has his (her) own Internet connection and e:mail address I will be mediator for him. So, you can e:mail your opinions to me and I will give them to the artists. During the "day" I work as a Marketing Manager in the Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian area for Finnish concern VALMET (for paintings Valmet Automation - producer of process automation systems). I am a member of Lions Clubs International.

This is the best site for looking up various art productions and purchasing prints. Navitrolla is young Estonian artist in his twenties to whom painting has become his life''s work. Taking a brief look at his pictures one may wonder if he is a naivist. He isn''t. He doesn''t create art "innocently" as the naivists do, but acts according to a mysterious programme, known maybe to Navitrolla or to no one if he doesn''t. You don''t know what to think of it. Maybe it makes you angry, or maybe it makes you laugh. Now, when you have seen his picture''s maybe you would like to know more about Navitrolla''s life. Please, come into the Navitrolla''s Life to read about it! If You would like to inspect how Navitrolla looks like, come into the Navitrolla''s Photos.

Our studio grew out of Maurel Press originated in 1955 by artists Sheila and Ary Marbain. It opened as a custom screen printing shop specializing in printing with contemporary artists. Sheila had studied art at Black Mountain College in North Carolina with Joseph Albers, Ilya Bolotowsky and William deKooning from 1948 through 1950. Ary had worked and exhibited as a painter in France for many years. After the sudden death of Ary Marbain in 1963, the studio was closed for a year. Sheila then decided to modernize the workshop and introduce screen photography along with a new vacuume printing table. Our studio reopened on 23rd Street in Manhattan. With an assistant, Sheila plunged into printing three dimensional objects. A plexiglass airship for Lichtenstein, an Oldenburg soft drum set, a set of dominoes with Fahlstrom, and a large fabric banner with Marisol were some of the editions.
