Inga Bunk\u0161e on the annual group exhibition of Latgale&#8217;s artists"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Questions like \u201cWho did you vote for?\u201d and \u201cHow did you cast your vote?\u201d often come up in discussions at polling stations. Let us imagine a scenario where a vote must be cast in a literal sense. Where the act of voting surrenders the citizen\u2019s actual voice to a political figure who then speaks on behalf of the electorate \u2013 be it one, three, or five thousand voters \u2013 for the entire electoral cycle. Whom would you entrust with your voice? Presumably, someone wise, reliable, and just. But there is a critical caveat: the voices must coalesce into a consensus.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This way, if every voter clamours for \u201cgrand residences\u201d, the politician gets a lavish home (see Aivars Bulis, \u201cI Vote For\u2026\u201d). If the collective desire gravitates towards \u201cthe latest iPhone\u201d, that is what the elected official gets. In essence, the electorate\u2019s aspirations dictate the politician\u2019s rewards. But what if the collective voice were to prioritise the common good? Instead of doing everything to line one\u2019s pockets, imagine channelling this power towards the progress of the city or the nation, ensuring just and equitable governance, combating climate change, promoting peace, and unequivocally rejecting territorial conquest. What if the citizens\u2019 voices collectively compelled politicians to act with integrity, refrain from deceit, evasion, and opportunism, and honour their commitments? Would one then not contend that every single vote is instrumental in shaping our collective future? Ideally, yes, but some might argue otherwise: \u201cThat cannot be the case; my single vote will surely make no difference.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A universal sense of disbelief and disillusionment seems to have taken hold in Latvia \u2013 many feel disempowered, believing that their actions will never bring desired change. Yes, people vote, elect and re-elect their representatives and still observe a firmly rooted status quo. Could this stagnation stem from our persistent failure to reflect on the integrity and character of those we elect? Indeed, social activism seems to have fallen out of favour.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the municipal elections in the country, the Rothko Museum invited artists from the Latgale region to contribute to an exhibition with a thought-provoking theme, its Latvian title playing on the homonymy of \u2018desire\u2019 and \u2018election\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition statement reads: \u201c&#8230;when all is said and done, every election involves an active interplay between our personal ambitions and collective choices, where individual desires and value-driven motivations inevitably clash or merge with our collective action and our shared accountability.\u201d Yet, many artists have chosen to remain within their comfort zones, engaging with the theme only in the titles of their contributions.<\/p>\n<p>That said, Aivars Bulis offers a cuttingly ironic take on elections, envisioning a fictional political party, \u201cDreamers\u201d, whose ballot paper exposes the inherent self-interest of human nature. The piece stands out with its sharp wit and unconventional animation technique. In a similar vein, Jurika Bak\u0101ne offers a satirical caricature on the \u201cblack PR\u201d of election campaigns, capturing how power-hungry candidates resort to unscrupulous tactics to undermine their opponents.<\/p>\n<p>Several works in the exhibition evoke our antebellum aspirations \u2013 our peaceful longings and desires, our hopes to see our children thrive. But can our children be truly happy while a war is raging right next door or while our planet is slowly dying due to man-made climate change?<\/p>\n<p>However, if one suspends the expectation that artists must engage in civic activism, the exhibition can instead be viewed as an artistic meditation on the fundamental themes of our existence. Seen through this lens, depictions of our daily life (Annele Sli\u0161\u0101ne, Nata\u013cja Krjukova) become philosophical reflections on our experience of time, space, and materiality. A deeply human longing for universal and lasting peace is palpable in nearly every depiction of the natural world (Ruta \u0160telmahere, Ilze Griez\u0101ne, Ludvigs B\u0113rzi\u0146\u0161, Agra Riti\u0146a). Even the abstract works, though not overtly challenging the aesthetic discourse, seem to invite a search for hidden beauty.<\/p>\n<p>Gita Palma\u2019s \u201cGrave Keeper\u201d introduces a striking dissonance. The first contradiction lies in the painting\u2019s spontaneity, as if the image were a snapshot of a fleeting moment \u2013 in stark contrast to the solemn gravitas and permanence associated with a cemetery, where eternity prevails. The composition further challenges viewers to interrogate their perception of reality and the enduring nature of beauty. Similar tensions and imbalances between the subjective and public realms, the intimate and the universal emerge in Aiva \u017d\u016bri\u0146a\u2019s \u201cHeritage\u201d and Anatolijs Zel\u010ds\u2019 \u201cThe Age of Silo People\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the exhibition offers a stimulating visual experience that wows with its stylistic, formal, and material diversity. Realism, hyperrealism (Svetlana Save\u013cjeva), surrealism (Marina Krasovska, Laura L\u0101ce), and abstraction, amidst a wealth of colour, texture, form, and line, engage both the eye and the mind. The featured artists have successfully transformed their material \u2013 textile and metal, porcelain and clay, cast iron, glass, acrylic resin, and many more \u2013 into original aesthetic experiences through felting, weaving, moulding, vitreography, and other techniques. The abundance of artistic thought and expression is firmly rooted in the dedicated efforts of Latgale\u2019s art educators and educational institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition\u2019s thoughtful layout and design, a hallmark feature through the years, guide the viewer to unexpected intersections among the artworks on display and new interpretations of familiar motifs.<\/p>\n<p>To wrap things up, a final thought on the subject of elections: we live in a time when the line between fact and fiction, reality and absurdity, grows increasingly blurred \u2013 not least in political discourse. In this sea of uncertainty, art remains a formidable instrument for interrogating narratives that shape our personal lives and the political landscape. So, let us harness its potential!<\/p>\n<p>In the coming election, let us heed the voice of reason.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Inga Bunk\u0161e, Mag. art.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>The exhibition is on show from 7 March to 18 May.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/rothkomuseum.com\/en\/ekspozicija\/desire\/\">https:\/\/rothkomuseum.com\/en\/ekspozicija\/desire\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Publicity image: Jurika Bak\u0101ne &#8220;Who Wants Dinner?!&#8221;.
