Maksla XO Gallery was pleasure to meet you as our guest to ART VILNIUS 2023 Contemporary Art Fair at the solo exposition of PAULIS LIEPA - one of the best known Latvian contemporary printmaker with his own bright and recognizable style.
Paulis Liepa reflects on a wide range of philosophical questions and current events - starting from recent war collision points to simple commonplace items and topics: street, internet, news, advertising... The latest works talk about the movement that slowly, but surely changes the order of things around us, causing us to change along them - both by accepting the natural course of things and impulsively reacting to external irritants.
