Each year, “JAUNmarka” brings together more than 300 participants from all departments of the Art Academy of Latvia. The exhibition showcases works by promising first-year students as well as doctoral candidates with distinctive artistic voices and experience. Over the course of three weeks, the exhibition’s display changes daily, featuring around 9,000 artworks in total.
Thanks to its scale and diversity, “JAUNmarka” is recognized as the largest student art fair–exhibition in the Baltics. It offers young artists an invaluable opportunity to introduce their work to a wider audience, while giving art lovers a chance to discover and acquire works by the future classics of Latvian art.
The theme “Powerhouse of Art” invites visitors to reflect on the many functions of art — its ability not only to provide aesthetic pleasure, but also to reveal new emotions, address values and social issues, and inspire strength both individually and collectively.
