ElusIV gallery opens
The ElusIV gallery is open and complete. Letters installed. Walls inscribed. It is open to the public to view any time, just be weary of used needles, broken glass, and protective squatters. Especially now after the recent ethnic outbursts. I can imagine the purely Russian inhabitants are weary of any architectural explorations and easily angered by trespassers. Just ask for Andres and use your Russian to the best of your abilities. It's all on you know. Enjoy it while it lasts.
For Explorers of the Next Kind
1. Pull the U-lock out and enter the gate.
2. Follow along the houses, staying to the right.
3. Duck through a fallen fence covered with decades of garbage.
4. When you come out, turn right and walk straight by the garbage. Then follow the street around to the left until you get to a fence. Enter the building to your left through the broken window.
5. After stepping through the window head right and to the end, then back through the next window.
6. Follow the street almost to the very end and enter the building on your right. Look for the stairwell to the top floor, where the main exhibtion is.

Postal Hacks
This is the building I'm claiming. Fuck it! It's a real nice spot in the center of the old town. It seems abandoned and has no proper signage or address. So i'm installing a mailbox and using this as my database. This is my hard drive architecture. Send your work here and i'll retrieve it. This is all really a test in ownership and residency.
Location determined and installed
After combing the city for the best location I happened upon an abandoned building in the center of a bustling area of commerce. Around the Elus IV Gallery are numerous Galleries, the Russian Embassy, the first Estonian bar, and two chocolate stores. For some reason, everything surrounding the Gallery has become hot real estate, except for this one forgotten store front.

The elusIV gallery is the 4th extension of the elus galleries in Tallinn, Estonia. elusIV is located in the heart of Old Town and exists in the form of a guerilla mailbox with a stolen address. This is where submissions were received and later transported to the main exhibition space.
