The exhibition at the Jurmala Cultural Center features specially created photographs taken at the end of 2024, when photographer Philippe Margeau visited Latvia.
The project "Baltic Notes" - "Carnets Baltique" is a journey by photographer Philippe Margeau around the Baltic Sea.
It is a journey through eight countries: Finland, Poland, Germany, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Denmark, Sweden and their islands. Photographer Philippe Margeau has always been attracted by these Northern European countries.
The project "Baltic Notes" began in 2016, and it is planned to continue for a few more years. To do this, in June 2018, F. Margeau moved from Paris to Gdańsk in Poland, in order to immerse himself in the Baltic climate on a daily basis, get to know it, understand and feel its atmosphere, explore its coast and get to know its inhabitants. He has created a kind of "base camp" in Gdańsk to be able to travel (or return) to other Baltic countries. None of this would have been possible if the artist had stayed in France.
Free admission.
Opening hours: Tuesday to Saturday from 12:00 to 18:00, closed on Sundays and Mondays.
