The exhibited works were a continuation of the series exhibited alongside the works of Oj\u0101rs P\u0113tersons, Monika Pormale, J\u0101nis Garan\u010ds and others at the exhibition\u00a0\u201cHeroes of our Time\u201d<\/a>\u00a0at C\u0113sis in 2009.<\/p>\n

The notion of \u201cplace\u201d that can equally well be understood as a portion of space, social station or a particular point that one has reached, as in a book,\u00a0 derives both physical as well as spiritual meaning in the works of Kaspars Podnieks. As the artist himself states, \u201cIn my creative process, essential points of reference and objects of research are connected with Drusti. I come from there and I am there. There I gain the certainty that the work will be true and thus worthwhile to the others as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Exhibition \u201cUnusual Place\u201d showcased photographs and videos that depict the artist levitating above a lake, country road, meadow. The artist defies gravity not with the help offered by the modern digital technologies, but with the help of complicated and laborious constructions doing everything \u201cfor real\u201d so to say. This \u201cfor real\u201d allows to describe his works as having a farmer’s thoroughness, stability and sense of scale, and even a certain rational humanism.\u00a0(“Studija\u201d 40\/2005)<\/a><\/p>\n

Kaspars Podnieks lives and works at Drusti. He graduated from the Department of Visual Communication, Art Academy of Latvia. He has participated in many international exhibitions, for example, \u201cTime Will Show\u201d in Flensburg, Germany and \u201cBuket\u201d in Moscow, Russia.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
