The memorial square strives for the human-scale but how successful is it?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, there are few monuments in Estonia erected for remarkable women. There is a larger than life marble statue of Marie Under in a folk-dance position in front of the National Library (authors Mati Karmin and Tiit Trummal), Betti Alver has an abstract memorial in J\u00f5geva (author Terje Ojaver) and Miina H\u00e4rma is standing in front of the secondary school bearing her name in Tartu (author Juta Eskel). In addition, there are some monuments dedicated to mothers as well as many anonymous women, more or less covered or completely uncovered mythological characters in graceful poses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So it is all the more remarkable when one woman is given already a second bronze statue. This happened to Lydia Koidula \u2013 she has crowned the park bearing her own name in P\u00e4rnu already since 1929 (author Amandus Adamson). Standing on top of a large rock typically of the era, the romantic figure remains somewhat unnoticed in the urban space. With the memorial square in Tartu, Koidula is brought among her people so to speak, as was also mentioned by the competition jury in their comments on the winning entry. Koidula has already been honoured in Tartu with a protected oak tree bearing her name at the corner of Pepleri and Tiigi Streets (between the Soviet buildings) that had reportedly grown in the garden of the poet\u2019s parents, although there seems to be little truth in the story as she could not possibly have created anything significant under a tree that probably did not even reach her shoulders at the time. A more modern touch is given to her in the form of street art in the parking lot in Magistri Street, stamped on the wall of a former fuel station and current public toilet, featuring Koidula puffing on a cigarette with her hairdo still as dignified as in the school textbooks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Jannsen-ja-Koidula_foto-Uku-Peterson_7975-scaled.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Jannsen-ja-Koidula_foto-Uku-Peterson_7975-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4982\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Jannsen-ja-Koidula_foto-Uku-Peterson_7975-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Jannsen-ja-Koidula_foto-Uku-Peterson_7975-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Jannsen-ja-Koidula_foto-Uku-Peterson_7975-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Jannsen-ja-Koidula_foto-Uku-Peterson_7975-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Jannsen-ja-Koidula_foto-Uku-Peterson_7975-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Photo: Uku Peterson<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>It would all be very nice, if only Koidula did not have to share the attention with her father Johann Voldemar Jannsen who has also earned his place of honour in the Estonian cultural history. It is not only about meanness or shared glory but also the selected expressive means. It actually received quite a lot of criticism soon after the announcement of the winning entry for the same reason \u2013 why should Koidula be a child?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It would be difficult to imagine a similar approach to the monument of some great men. True, a small bronze boy is dedicated to Arvo P\u00e4rt in Rakvere (authors Aivar Simson and Paul M\u00e4nd) but with a clear historic background: having lived in Rakvere until his secondary school graduation, Arvo used to circle around the square by bike listening to classical music from the loudspeakers attached to the post. And there is no patronising father figure anywhere in sight who could scold him or guide his talents in the right direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The small Koidula sporting her famous massive adult mane created by Bruno Kadak is running away from the square towards a random brushwood while the somewhat larger than life Jannsen of advanced age by Mare Mikof is sitting on a bench with a pipe in his hand and looking down. The man is indeed sometimes called Papa Jannsen, but why wasn\u2019t the woman then depicted as the Nightingale of River Emaj\u00f5gi or the Maiden of Writing? In reply to a comment about the fact that Koidula\u2019s childhood was spent in P\u00e4rnu, Mikof stated (ev100.ee), \u201cBut that is irrelevant. She was her father\u2019s child and that does not diminish her importance in the history of Tartu and the entire Estonia.\u201d Let\u2019s hope that women will become more independent in the future with no obligation to remain the children of their famous fathers until the end of their life and will have the permission to grow up.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula-Jannseni-asendiplaan-1-1024x721.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"721\" src=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula-Jannseni-asendiplaan-1-1024x721.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5007\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula-Jannseni-asendiplaan-1-1024x721.png 1024w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula-Jannseni-asendiplaan-1-300x211.png 300w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula-Jannseni-asendiplaan-1-768x541.png 768w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula-Jannseni-asendiplaan-1.png 1252w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Site plan.

As stated by the authors, the given manoeuvre allows to highlight Lydia Koidula\u2019s memories of her childhood, her love for her country and also the theme of national awakening.\u201d&nbsp;<strong>Recent sculptures all tend to be so to speak among people, in other words, life-size characters either sitting or walking and fit for taking selfies. There\u2019s nothing peculiar about that.<\/strong>&nbsp;Also in R\u00fc\u00fctli Street in P\u00e4rnu, the bronze statue of Jannsen (author Mati Karmin) features a man reading a newspaper among pedestrians. Although according to the dictionary, an intrigue stands for a conspiracy or a trick, the child-Koidula seems a bit silly and unconvincing, not to say degrading. Jannsen\u2019s statue is not clever in a way befitting a university town, and I must agree with Meelis Oidsalu\u2019s views expressed in Sirp (5 Oct), \u201cI don\u2019t know if anything and what exactly caused a dispute in Tartu, but if the decision-makers had made a bolder choice and erected the memorial with all the modifications we could see in Draakon Gallery (Jannsen wearing bright blue rubber galoshes and orange knitted gloves), we could be talking about a sculptural ensemble worthy of \u201cthe city of good thoughts\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be that as it may with the creative freedom of the artists and the taste of the audience, but the small square is also marked by pronounced pathos. Monuments have been brought down from the pedestal to diminish the distance from the so-called common people, however, the plaques of poetry still remain exceedingly solemn and presumably fully incomprehensible to visitors and tourists. They may be the key figures of national awakening but is the only way to appreciate Jannsen really by reading the patriotic lines from the bronze plaque underneath his seat in a trembling voice, \u201cIn every place with Estonian people \/ You hear their boundless love \/ For the land of their fathers \/ In their ardent song of praise\u201d? And the children\u2019s song \u201cOur Childhood Village Lane\u201d selected from Koidula\u2019s works calls for resisting the temptation to leave one\u2019s country and staying put instead, appreciating and coming to terms with the abode. The selection seems to have been guided by the current overwhelming national pathos accompanying the country\u2019s anniversary gifts that does not allow the story to be retold, for instance, in English either.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju_B7A2900-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Photo: Andero Kalju<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>In addition to the symbolist meanings, the square accentuating the urban space fortunately comes to convey also some less complex physical and spatial ones. So for instance, the memorial square has given a clear identity and function to the sordid intersection at the end of the pedestrian bridge where the old-fashioned advertising column used to be the only thing inviting you to slow down on your path. \u00dclej\u00f5e Park looks somewhat random and chaotic, some consider it even unfriendly and dark, so the new square will certainly bring new life to the area. The contemporary public space created by the memorial square firmly anchors the city at the other end of the Arch Bridge.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote>\n<p>Recent sculptures all tend to be so to speak among people, in other words, life-size characters either sitting or walking and fit for taking selfies. There&#8217;s nothing peculiar about that.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Tajuruum is an office of young talented landscape architects who have convincingly proven themselves and thus become increasingly visible in the urban space of Tartu. The memorial square of Koidula and Jannsen follows their distinctive style: minimalism with clear lines and the uses left modishly free. It is precisely the landscape architecture of the small city square that tones down the pathos of the sculptures and lines of poetry and actually brings the public space closer to people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a seating area on the bank protection of River Emaj\u00f5gi with its steps leading closer to water and opening new views that differ from the traditional ones from the park paths. The airiness of the terrace raised slightly above the ground is enhanced by the black metal railings as well as the metal grate flooring contrasting to the warm wood of the seating steps. Then again, the environmental impact of the rubbish sieving through it and into the water is, of course, another matter. The square solution is relatively simple making use of various surfacing materials, there are narrow strips between the large concrete slabs created by seams and stones of various size that gradually join the vast lawns of \u00dclej\u00f5e Park with the Arch Bridge and the concrete surface of the city streets. The narrow planting beds similarly follow the same style.\u00a0The beds of perennials and flowers that were considered romantic in the competition entry sketches have not taken shape yet, however, the planting schemes suggest lush slum greenery\u00a0which probably refers to the above-mentioned poem by Koidula (knee-high meadow with flowers and grass). Hopefully, the growing plants will eventually shrug off the wooden sticks and rope of the borders around the bed.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"795\" src=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju-1024x795.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju-1024x795.png 1024w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju-300x233.png 300w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju-768x596.png 768w, https:\/\/ajakirimaja.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Koidula_foto-Andero-Kalju.png 1266w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Photo: Andero Kalju<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Similarly, we can only hope that the idea suggested in the competition entry to make some space for a small business or the City Museum\u2019s play or exposition area will be realized as then the square placed in an important route intersection would actually be in active use extending its annual time of use. Also various formal or spontaneous events could find their venue there, as it does provide space for self-organisation. This would help to bring more vigour to the space that at present is perhaps somewhat pragmatic and practical at the city government\u2019s pleasure (as emphasised during the competition).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sculpture and landscape architecture seem to be of oppositional nature here in the tiny square with the solemn bronze competing with the human-scale space and the patriotic with the popular.
