From January 10 to February 17, two painting exhibitions – Sandra Vingre's solo exhibition "Zibatmiņa" and Sarmīte Caune's solo exhibition "AINAVA tête-à-tête" can be seen in the theatre house "Jūras vārti".

The works of Sandra Vingre are characterized by bright colour anatomy, precise lines, graphical and strong visual language. In the exhibition "Zibatmiņa", reality meets fantasy in a vital and fresh energy.

Collage technique has been used as the basic element at the stage of sketch development, where playful interpretation results in improvisation with ancient carvings, ornamental patterns, advertising graphics and illustrations, magazine cuttings, urban culture and other elements.

By transforming all this, the artist creates works in a manner characteristic to her and untypical to Latvian art perspective.

In the exhibition “AINAVA tête-à-tête” Sarmīte Caune reveals her passion for landscape painting. Together in one place there can be seen the paintings of the artist that have been created while doing air painting here in Latvia, Poland, the sunny southern European countries and Morocco.

Landscapes full of sun, sea, palms, desert, sand, meadows and parks, cityscapes with boat docks, market squares and streets are pervaded by nuanced scope of ambience, filigree perception and choice of colours. The artist's viewer is allowed to capture the magic and uniqueness of every moment, where lightness, joy and true freedom are felt.

Entrance – free of charge.
