RIGA GALLERY
participates at VIENNAFAIR 2011

12.05.2011. - 15.05.2011.

This year International Contemporary Art Fair Viennafair focuses on the Central and Eastern European countries. International jury selected 127 galleries from 26 countries to take part in the fair, including the Rīgas Galerija participating with Ieva Iltnere exhibition Obsession.


Solo project Obsession includes seven paintings analysing obsession of creating collections and archives, pointing to challenges of conservation with modern digital technologies and quoting an internationally renowned art curator Boris Grois who said that there was probably very much art... A parallel program provides a list of performances supporting the idea.


Ieva Iltnere is one of the most outstanding and creative artists of her generation, participating in exhibitions since 1978. Iltnere has created a particular imagery that clearly marks her individual works. Her paintings feature subdued colouring and discrete intonation, paying particular attention to light and composition. Each work is endowed with a personal touch.

 
Ieva Iltnere will participate at the opening of her exhibition at the Messe Wien, Hall A, Messeplatz 1 in Vienna.

 
This year also 21 internationally recognized curators were attracted to create exhibitions from private collections thus illustrating their vision on private collection development. Romanian curator Lilian Popsecu for Knoll Galerie Wien has selected works of two Latvian painters featured in different private collections Harijs Brants and Ritums Ivanovs.
