Māris Čačka. Relationships… Painting as Dialogue

On 18 September at the Art Gallery (Respublikos St. 3) the exhibition “Relationships… Painting as Dialogue” by Latvian artist Māris Čačka was opened. The display will be available to visitors until 19 October 2025.

In his works, the artist sees painting as a form of dialogue – with the world, the viewer, silence, time, form, and himself. Each canvas emerges as a response to a feeling, thought, or conversation, transforming into spaces where the viewer is invited to observe, sense, and participate. The idea of painting as dialogue becomes the foundation of the exhibition, reflected in the structure, form, titles, and in the very experience of the audience.

Māris Čačka (born 1976 in Varakļāni, Latvia) is an artist, curator, and since 2020 the Director of the Rothko Museum in Daugavpils. He has participated in more than 90 exhibitions, including over 40 solo shows in Latvia and abroad.
