About the event

SALONS sadarbībā ar RAW piedāvā īpašu Rīgas Mākslas Nedēļas epizodi, kurā piedalīsies radošais duo Swedish Girls un kurators-arhitekts Džeimss Teilors-Fosters.

SALONA #7 epizodē diskutēsim par mākslinieciskām intervencēm, kas darbojas kā katalizatori publiskās telpas pārveidošanai, un aicināsim atklāt jaunus veidus, kā izmantot ārtelpu, lai veicinātu mijiedarbību, individuālo un kolektīvo rīcību pilsētā.

📍 Sestdien, 31. maijā. Norises vieta: Backdoor Market Pop-up Gallery, Radošā rūpnīca Veldze
