The exhibition "Valdis Bušs 100. Connection"
- 30.May 17:00 - 14.July
- Jurmala museum
- Tirgoņu iela 29
The Jūrmala Museum will open the exhibition "Valdis Bušs 100. Connection".
Valdis Bušs (1924 - 2014), a great painter, is 100 years old this year. His name needs no comment - the canvases, covered with large-scale palette knife strokes, shine with a vivid and harmonious variety of colours, awakening a hopeful mood in the viewers. "Valdis Bušs is such a beautiful sign in our culture," the painter Džemma Skulme once said. The artist lived in Jūrmala for 59 years, held his first solo exhibition there in 1972, and led the Jūrmala Artists Group for almost 10 years. However, his name and the significance of his art have many times transcended the borders of Jūrmala and even Latvia, filling exhibition halls in Germany, Switzerland, France and elsewhere in Europe.

Bergins exhibition "Meeting Place" at Aspazija House
- 6.June - 16.August
- Aspazija's House
- Z. Meierovica prospekts 18/20
A new exhibition "Meeting Place" by artists Juris Bergin and Živile Bardzilauskaite- Bergin opens at the Aspazija House.
The two artists met in Jurmala in 1993 at a porcelain painting symposium at the Dzintari Artists' House of the Artists' Union of Latvia. In their creative search, they found not only their way to each other, but also their vocation in art, to which they have remained faithful ever since. "Živile's painting moved from porcelain vessels to canvas, and the style was developed in Jurmala in 1993. These symposia were also very significant for me, because when I was decorating the vessels of the Riga porcelain factory in the late 1980s, I had the idea of creating painted, sculptural three-dimensional works from porcelain with realistic images, which I then further polished in Jurmala," says Juris Bergins.
The exhibition "Meeting Place" is a tribute by Živilė Bardzilauskaitė- Bergin and Juris Bergin to the city where the two artists met. Although the exhibition mostly features works created in the last five years, it also includes porcelain objects created during the symposia held at the Dzintari Artists' House at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s.
Opening hours of the Aspazija House - Mon. - Closed, Tue. - Sat. 10.00 - 18.00, Sun. 11.00 - 16.00.
Free entry.

The exhibition of the painter Valdis Bušs "Sun. Jurmala. Lielupe."
- 22.July - 20.July
- Bulduri Exhibition House
- Muižas iela 6
Valdis Bušs (1924 - 2014), while living in Jūrmala, painted many landscapes of the immediate surroundings. Lielupe, boat piers, yacht regattas, sunset in the bend of the river, snow-covered houses, slender pine trees - these are just some of the scenes depicted in the artist's paintings. In the paintings of Valdis Bušs, we feel both the heat of hot summer and the spelunking of winter, and enjoy a magnificent sunset on the banks of Lielupe.
Painting was a way of life and a necessity for Valdis Bušs. The artist devoted every free moment to his great love - painting. During his long creative life, countless paintings and nature studies were created. Every day, the artist went to paint the landscapes of the immediate surroundings and was waiting for a vacation when he could devote himself only to painting. Not all works are given names, but sometimes a street corner, a characteristic river bay, a boat dock helps to recognize the depicted landscape.
Bulduri Exhibition House working hours: Tuesday-Saturday 10.00-17.00.
Free entrance.
