 VKN Gallery (“More Than Nothing”)
|
| |
| The gallery's area of interest is working contemporary artists from Latvia and the Baltic region, as well as other countries. Its main remit is to support young, talented artists by giving them a start through solo exhibitions, in this way building up a stable of artists and raising their profile in Latvia and abroad. |

| The manager of the gallery is Ivo Strante. In the gallery's scope of activities, the realisation of non-commercial art projects, support and working with other non-commercial art institutions hold prime place. A successful cooperation with the Department of Visual Communication of Latvian Academy of Art has been developed. One important cooperation partner for the gallery is the Contemporary Art Museum's pilot project kim? at Maskavas iela 12/1 (which can be reached by walking through the Riga Central Market). |
