This week, on the eve of the traditional spring sales, the Auction House ‘Mākslas Vēstniecība’ is arranging a large exhibition of fine and applied arts at the Rietumu Bank Gallery in Riga.
The exposition has already generated considerable interest on the part of specialists, collectors, art lovers and connoisseurs – over the first three days it has been visited by more than 1200 persons. It is also remarkable that this time there is an interest shown in the auction not only in Latvia, but also from abroad.This Sunday the guest tour of the Latvian National Opera at the Bolshoi Theatre was completed. The original performances of classical opera masterpieces presented on the main theatrical stage of Russia were an unqualified success with the public and were highly evaluated by theatre critics of the Russian capital. The guest tour took place with the support of the Ministry of Culture of Latvia and Rietumu Bank.
