On 23 November 2024 at 18.00, the first exhibition "The Pit" by the young artists Patrīcija Krūmiņa and Marija Slaidiņa, students of the Visual Communication Department of the Art Academy of Latvia, will be opened at the Rainis and Aspazija Summer House.The exhibition can be viewed until 8 February 2025.

The audiovisual exhibition explores the concept of the pit not only as a physical, deep and dark place, but also as a condition, process and possibility. "The Pit'' you will discover the artists' vision of a symbol that was also important to Rainis, and perhaps it will allow the audience to think about it too.

Opening hours: The exhibition is available for concert attendees 1 hour before the concert, during intermissions, and after the concert.

Dzintari Concert Hall, in collaboration with Jūrmala Art School, invites you to the exhibition “Winter Symphony” featuring works by the school’s students in the Chamber Hall.

Winter Symphony captures moments of nature expressed in colors, much like music reveals them in a symphony. Visual art and the world of sound share many parallels—both adhere to a unified composition of rhythm, contrasts, and tonal vibrations.

Swedish photographer Lars Thunbjörk (1956–2015) photographed the world around him in a distinctly personal style. Having started his career as a photojournalist for a local newspaper in his hometown of Buros in the 1970s, he soon became a prominent freelance photographer. Around 1990, his handwriting became stronger: bright colors, drastic humor and the kind of everyday depiction that borders on the strange and surreal.

Lars Thunbjörk finds many of the subjects of his photographs in the periphery, in places such as discount stores, highways, parking lots and camper parks. Often the people he met and portrayed look a bit awkward and lost. At first glance, Lars Thunbjörk's photographs may seem ironic or even cynical, but they are based on empathy and identification with the characters of the images.

The exhibition at the Art Station "Dubulti" marks Lars Tūnbjærk's long relationship with Latvia. Latvian Museum of Photography in Riga presented his personal exhibition already in 1997. Lars Tūnbjörks visited Latvia several times and became friends with Latvian colleagues, including Inta Rukas and Andrejs Grants. Lars Thunbjörk visited both the cities and the countryside.

The exhibition has three parts: Latvia (1996), I love Borås! (1988–1995) and The Office (1994–1999). Viewed together, these three series of photographs - all from roughly the same era - reflect Lars Thünbjörk's unique style of photography and emphasize the emotional impact of his images.

The curators of the exhibition are Inga Šteimane, Love Jonsons and Moda Nikandere.

Dubulti Art Station is the only professional exhibition hall in Europe located in a functioning railway station. It has been operating since 2015 and gives a new dimension to the 20th century.
