Puntuss pop-up exhibition
7 - 22 October 2022
Celebrating M/Darbnīca 2-year anniversary, M/Gallery will unveil a new pop-up exhibition on October 7 with artist Aleksandrs Puntuss, who is the first artist M/Gallery has welcomed to its space 2 years ago!
Puntuss understood that he was meant to be a painter 13 years ago, after a vision he had in a tram on the way to the supermarket. The first painting that appeared to him was of many faces on a black background. When he saw that image in his head, he knew he had to learn how to build a frame, where to buy the canvas, oil and paintbrushes. Six months later, his first artwork called #2 was completed, and the rest is history.
