Gallery MuseumLV will open its doors to visitors from June 1.

31.05.2021.

Cultural Center Grata JJ and gallery MuseumLV are pleased to announce the resumption of their activities. The gallery will open its doors to visitors from June 1, according to the previous appointment. Visitors are asked to book their visit in a timely manner.
This can be done by calling 670 16 602, writing an email to info@museumlv.com or sending a message to WhatsApp (254 09 000).
Tickets can be purchased at “Biļešu Serviss” or by paying on the spot in the gallery. We offer two exhibitions - D. Luse's solo exhibition "Amalgams of time" and an exhibition - sale "100 works - 100 authors".


The gallery plans to resume its activities with the artist Dita Luse's solo exhibition "Amalgams of time", which was opened in the gallery last October. Shortly after its opening, a state of emergency was declared in the country and the gallery had to suspend its operations. Currently, the MuseumLV team gives visitors the opportunity to see the artist's works in person, which will be on display for several weeks.

About D. Luse’s exhibition “Amalgams of time”:

Like the olfactory memory that lets one perceive the smells based on the memories of things experienced and sensed in the past, the visible image sometimes gives a similar impulse – while you look at some visual evidence you are carried away in your thoughts to some different place and time, and you may see a whole different scene or event in your mind and become lost in the labyrinths of thought.

Writing and receiving letters is a form of relationship that is almost entirely lost nowadays, yet it is a long-lasting testimony to relationships, something that contemporary relations can not substantiate in a tangible form. The letters are also an evidence of the time one person devotes to another. It is something we do not do nowadays, we allocate much less time to the other person. Our day-to-day communication is short, fractured, careless, time-saving, which can become a hindrance to the well-being and enjoyment of our relationship.
The central image of the exhibition is the relationships, the evidence that they have left and that still influence the descendants. Perhaps it is essential and beautiful to stop at times and look at the love of two young people, the winding path of life through the evidence they have left – letters, with signs of foxing, photos, that still have an impact on us and show us who we are and where we come from.

For the inspiration of the exhibition there have been used authentic letters and photographs from the family archives.

Welcome to the gallery! MuseumLV is open from Tuesday to Saturday.
