JAVAMUSEUM PRESS RELEASE
In memoriam Tiia Johannson.
On 11 June 2002,
Tiia Johannson died at the young age of 37 years in Tallin/Estonia.
Tiia Johannson was an internationally highly respected net artist for many
years.
Her works participated in a variety of
international media festivals and exhibitions and have been honoured with
numerous prizes and awards.
In 2001, she received the "JavaArtist of the Year" Award given by JavaMuseum
and her complete work has been presented in autumn 2001 in a solo show at
JavaMuseum.
In order to honour her extraordinary work and keep vivid the memory of this
very talented artist, JavaMuseum will transform this solo show into a
Memorial exhibition for Tiia Johannson and will post it online in short for
permanent.
Tiia Johannson leaves her husband Raivo Kelomees and two children.
The whole art world will miss her.
