It\u00a0 showcased the artist\u2019s latest accomplishment \u2013 drawings and installations on entropy.<\/p>\n

The works at Miks Mitr\u0113vics’ latest exhbition have been created in collaboration with artist Krist\u012bne Kursi\u0161a.<\/p>\n

Entropy, defined as inevitable and steady deterioration of a system, always gains the upper hand over order and progress established by the humanity. Its force is inevitable, even brutal, and like an unstoppable inertia overturns everything in its way. The length of time order can withstand entropy is only a matter of time. Sooner or later grass cracks asphalt and temple turns into ruins. Disruption is inescapable; time will come for the white cube of a gallery.<\/p>\n

The inspiration for the exhibition came from the VKN Gallery itself which reminds one of the iconic white gallery cube as well as from everyday observations (the artist\u2019s studio is located in a workshop of a former textile factory) and imaginary discussions with American artist Robert Smithson<\/a> (1938-1973).<\/p>\n

Miks Mitr\u0113vics lives and works in Riga. Together with artist Evel\u012bna Dei\u010dmane he represented Latvia in this year\u2019s Venice Biennale with the exposition \u201cFragile Nature\u201d. In 2008 Mitr\u0113vics received the \u201cSwedbank\u201d art award and was nominated for the Purv\u012btis award. Over the past years, the artist has often attracted attention to his works in various international events, for example, at the exhibition \u201cBuket\u201d, State Contemporary Art Centre, Moscow, Russia and at Manifesta 7, the European Biennial of Contemporary Art, Rovereto, Italy. In 2006, he received the \u201cDiena\u201d award.<\/p>\n

By the end of the year Mitr\u0113vics had another exhibition in Riga \u2013 this time at Riga Art Space, but at the beginning of the next year \u2013 an exhibition at Nassauischer Kunstverein Wiesbaden, Germany.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
