Elizabete Andersone. ON THE EDGE OF PERCEPTION
Elizabete Andersone’s installation pays tribute to what lingers at the margins of everyday life – sounds, objects and spaces that are seen yet rarely noticed, fragments of experience that resist language but remain stored in the body. The work begins with a personal memory: a moment when the hum and flicker of a fluorescent lamp […]
Sarmīte Māliņa
Sarmīte Māliņa entered the Latvian contemporary art scene in the early 1990s, participating in group exhibitions that boldly challenged the visual art norms of the time. Her work quickly distinguished itself through a striking sense of restraint and clarity. As part of the exhibition series GIANTS, the installation From the Outside Looking In, originally created for Latvia […]
Jelena Glazova. Person with the last name Universe
Jelena Glazova is a poet and interdisciplinary artist based in Riga. Her work exists at the crossroads of language, image, and sound, exploring how these elements shape perception and meaning.

Using sound, video, digital media and objects, Vītols examines the fragile and often contradictory relationship between the civilization and the biological systems on which humanity depends. The […]
CLEAN CUT
The Clean Cut solo exhibition by Leonards Laganovskis comprises works from the last two years alongside art recognised as canonical in Latvian art history and exemplified by Clean Cut, a painting that came to be viewed as one of the symbols for the end of an era at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s.

CHRONOSPHERE
The speculative notion of a “chronosphere” is the conceptual framework of Lesia Vasylchenko’s first solo exhibition in Riga. Chronosphere, a constellation of interconnected works, explores the intricate interplay of temporal scales, ranging from the microtemporal, such as remote sensing of planetary surfaces and computational cycles, to the macrotemporal, including ecological trauma and the nuclear age. […]
