Exhibition “Rūdolfs Heimrāts 100. Legacy”

Visitors will enjoy to explore Heimrāts’ works from various museum collections, learn about his unrealized creative projects from his family archive, documentary films and photographs from private archives and the Latvian State Archives of Audiovisual Documents.

The display will also feature vibrant fabric prints and innovative textile designs in various techniques. For the first time a particular focus has been placed on Heimrāts’ collaboration with architects (M. Staņa, Dz. Driba, O. Ostenbergs, L. A. Knāķe, M. Ģelzis, and others) and his contribution to the development of interior design.

The idea of the exhibition is to promote a greater public understanding of the formation, development processes, and contemporary relevance of the Latvian textile art school.
