The exhibition covers a period of almost 50 years, starting from the coastal landscape of Vilhelms Purvītis, created in 1912 in the tradition of impressionism, to the small-format sketches of Voldemārs Caune, created in the 1960s.
Previously, the exhibition could be seen in the Fireplace Hall of the Jurmala Museum, but now, in a renewed appearance, it has been moved to the second floor of the museum and will delight viewers until the end of the year.
The exhibition was created in cooperation with Tukuma Art Museum, Romans Suta and Aleksandra Beļtsova Museum, G. Elias Jelgava Museum of History and Art, LU Academic Library, Zuzāni Art Collection, Jēkabs Art Gallery and private collectors.

Ansis Artums memorial exhibition "∞ moment" at Jūrmala Museum
- 16.October - 30.December
- Jūrmala Museum
- Tirgoņu iela 29
Ansis Artums (1908-1997) - a painter from Tukums, a virtuosic capturer of the beauty of Latvian nature during the changing seasons and the glory of simple flowers, one of the most recognisable and brilliant masters of Latvian landscape and quiet nature. An artist who was led by the joy of painting itself, "the beauty of painting".
He has rightly been called the director of nature - he has sensitively and skillfully adjusted the motifs of nature, creating his own "golden cut" for the view captured on canvas. At times the director's approach has manifested itself in a natural simplicity, at times even a certain eccentricity in the choice of colours, although the overall impression has always been harmonious.

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.

Swedish photographer Lars Thunbjerk's exhibition "The beautiful in the ugly and the ugly in the seemingly beautiful" at the Art Station "Dubulti"
- 25.October - 26.January
- Art Station "Dubulti"
- Stacija "Dubulti"
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. For a modernist architectural building of the 1970s. Art station Dubulti creates personal exhibitions of the best Latvian artists and international projects, emphasizing the dialogue between the work of art and the viewer. Art scientist Inga Šteimane is the founder and manager of Dubulti art station.
The exhibition is supported by the Jūrmala State City Administration and the State Culture Capital Fund, the Swedish Embassy, the Swedish-Latvian Cooperation Fund, the Lars Tūnbjerk Foundation, the Tore G Wärenstam Foundation and Fabriken Bästekille.
The exhibition is open every day until January 26 from 9.00 until 17.30.

In celebration of the 65th anniversary of the City of Jurmala, the exhibition focuses on the period after the Second World War and before the founding of Jurmala, from 1944 to the early 1960s. The main idea of the exhibition is to provide an insight into the pre- and post-unification period and to find out how the lives of the inhabitants were affected after the founding of Latvia's largest resort town.
