On November 28, a free painting workshop for young people will be held in the art workshops of the Rothko Museum on Komandanta Street 2, led by artist Elga Grīnvalde.
During the event, young people will have the opportunity to get to know the artist's creative activity, her painting philosophy and artistic expression techniques, as well as to get involved in the practical creative process themselves, experimenting with color, form and painting possibilities.
The event will last from 11.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m.
Participation in the event is free, but those interested must apply in advance by contacting the Rothko Museum (Mairita Folkmane, +371 26564817, [email protected]).
The event takes place at the Rothko Museum Youth Club project "Kultūrpice".
Supported by the municipality of Daugavpils state city in the program "Co-financing for the development and implementation of cultural products promoting the recognition of the city".
Elga Grīnvalde graduated from the Latvian Academy of Arts in 2000, obtaining a master's degree in painting in the workshop of professor Uno Daniļevskis. Participated in more than 60 group exhibitions in Latvia and abroad, organized 46 personal exhibitions. Works in painting and glass art, works in art pedagogy, curates and organizes exhibitions. Since 2003, she has been a member of the Artists' Union of Latvia.
Minimal means of expression, multi-layering and creation of spatiality on the plane of the painting are of particular importance in Elga Grīnvalde's creation. The artist is inspired by the infinity of the universe and man as an unexplored universe - a space of thoughts, feelings and energy.
