What if an art collector\u2014or in more modest terms, a person interested in art who from time to time also happened to purchase, exchange, and receive art works as gifts\u2014spent summers in rural Latvia? What would that house\u2014let\u2019s play it grand\u2014that Estate look like? Of what would it be reminiscent of? Would the house pay homage to the shabby chic of Anna Karenina, or the Eurodesign that dominated 1990s interiors? Would it lean towards the Soviet-esque, or stick with a pre-revolution, Baltic-German style?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

THE ESTATE\u2019s SUMMER\u00a0takes place in an abandoned Latvian summerhouse and imagines a fictional art collector who (could have) lived in a remote place such as this. Different artworks, ephemera, and leftovers from artistic productions join everyday utensils in creating a portrait that engages the entire house. Looking at the displayed artworks, it becomes clear that the collection or taste of this Collector is far from blue chip, where \u201csignature style\u201d and \u201ckey works\u201d prevail. It is instead inclusive of many by-products and leftovers. Smaller, earlier works provide an image of a rather eclectic but engaged collection, in which the artworks form part of what could be described as a \u201cconversation piece\u201d, to quote the eponymous 18th-Century English portraiture style and Luchino Visconti film (1974).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

THE ESTATE’s SUMMER\u00a0opens on August 3 and remains open by appointment throughout September.

THE ESTATE \/ AUTUMN
\nOpening: Wednesday, October 16, 6pm
\nDates: October 31 \u2013 December 1, 2019
\nVenue: Kim? Contemporary Art Centre, Riga<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For its second chapter\u00a0AUTUMN,\u00a0THE ESTATE\u00a0travels to the exhibition space of Kim? Contemporary Art Centre in Riga. Unlike the leisurely summerhouse gathering with its grand inaugural dinner, champagne and cigarettes; where conversation and gossip thrived amongst the intimacy of the endless nights,\u00a0THE ESTATE\u00a0at Kim? paints a darker picture, the one focused instead on the politics of the guest list. Like any collection (be it a collection of artworks, objects or a grouping of people)\u00a0AUTUMN\u00a0is based on exclusion. Nothing can be included without the exclusion of something else. Deaccessioning.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The exhibition space will be lacquered in black paint, celebrating the black box theatre and encouraging a movement of the exhibition visitors onto the stage. Pieces of art and furniture from the summerhouse itself will then be placed within the exhibition space. The rest of the scenery exists merely as a white painted outline, a floor plan of sorts. The ground is scattered with labels, for example, the outlined gooseberry bush is accompanied by the words \u201cGooseberry Bushes\u201d, in evocation of Lars von Trier\u2019s Dogville (2003).<\/p>\n
