For fifteen weeks in a row, one of the walls of the large hangar will be dedicated to an art exhibition, drawing attention to the importance of contemporary visual art in the overall cultural dynamics and emphasizing the author’s ability to process space, giving it an extra dimension.
The word “discovery” in the title reflects both the celebration of the exhibition or the public discovery of the artist’s work, as well as the wider correlation between visual environment professionals, admirers and accidental discoverers.
In the three-month exhibition cycle, artists such as Klāvs Loris, Rūdolfs Štamers, Aleksandrs Breže, Raitis Hrolovičs, Maija Kurševa, Līga Spunde and others will play with the context.
The first “Discovery of the Week” will be presented on July 20, the internationally acclaimed Latvian painter Klavs Lora’s large-scale work “Causa sui”, in which psychedelic abstraction invites the viewer to an open dialogue about the ideological clash of internal and external world. The painting was created under the influence of the English philosopher Simon Blackburn’s book “A Compelling Introduction to Philosophy”, which absurdly and comically argues the throwing of a surviving dog out the window of a room.
Klāvs Loris (1988) is a graduate of the Latvian Academy of Arts, actively participates in group exhibitions and has organized seven solo exhibitions. In 2015, he received the Grand Prix at the Biennial of Contemporary Art “European Creativity” in Paris. The artist’s handwriting and experiments with classical and non-traditional painting techniques can be most clearly read in bright large-format works.
