Kim? Contemporary Art Centre
“Kim? Salon” At Daugavpils Mark Rothko Art Centre

Dear Friend,

 

After more than a hundred shows, dozens of events, several publications and quite a few talks with a serious group of artists, curators, writers and philosophers, I approach you as one of them, to recall the occasion we first met.

This coming May is my 5th anniversary and as a needy child I request a special gift. Let us reinvent something we don’t really know but might enjoy playing with!

I’ll await a special piece of yours, emailed or post-mailed to Riga, for the inclusion in a self-curated display – my Salon.

Salon will find itself on a symbolic jigsaw puzzle enriched brick designed by the members of group exhibition NF presents: From A to Be to See to D (on display at Kim? from May 2 –  June 1). After it ends, the artwork with your name will be included in my evergrowing collection of objects and events.

And I shall make it thorough – the format and the technique of the piece selected is of vast importance and you have all the free will to decide on it.

Let us mix chance and choice!

 

Yours,

Kim?
