“Spring of Flowers” – this is the name of a bright and picturesque international exhibition that opened on the eve of the International Women’s Day in the BIArt gallery of our Baltic International Academy. This is a kind of gift to the women of Riga from artists from Latvia, Lithuania, Kazakhstan and Estonia. 70 amazing flowers born of nature and the fantasy of artists are presented at it. Accordingly, their names are familiar and imaginative – “Tenderness”, “Pianissimo”, “Star of the Podium”.
- Even I was pleased and surprised by the works of our artists, – noted Valentin Danilenko, curator of the exhibition and member of the Union of Artists of Latvia when opening the exhibition. They discovered some new pleasing features in the works of such masters of painting as Lyudmila Perets, Valery Makovoy, Maria Matveyeva, Irina Trumpel (Latvia), Igor Gushchin (Kazakhstan), Silvia Adomavicene (Lithuania), Hillar Mand (Estonia).
