顿啪别尘尘补

23 Aug, 2025 - 25 Jan, 2026
The artist 顿啪别尘尘补 Skulme both in her painting and in her personal conviction about the role of culture in a broader context, was always guided by the measure of human fundamental values 鈥 a spiritual vertical rooted in the heritage of folk culture. The goal of this exhibition is not only to explore the situation of art and society in Soviet-occupied Latvia through the creative contribution of a single author but, more importantly, to highlight the individual will of the artist's personality to speak about what was essential to both herself and her people despite ideological constraints. 顿啪别尘尘补 Skulme's art is a testament to how, under conditions of censorship, she gradually liberated herself from the state-imposed socialist realist expression, including ideological pathos, through her expressive painting language. The artist's personality and public stance have undeniably had a significant impact in Latvia both during the Soviet occupation and after the restoration of Latvia鈥檚 independence. As the head of the Latvian Artists' Union (1982鈥1992), she actively participated in the National Awakening movement and, in the turbulence of political times, playing a direct role in the country鈥檚 fight for independence.
