SUMMARY:Līga Spunde: Field of Exercises
DESCRIPTION:Latvian artist Līga Spunde turns TUR into an abstract training ground where large sculptural forms explore gestures such as embracing\, holding hands and standing with confidence. \nThe exhibition treats these gestures as exercises in empathy\, tenderness\, resilience and care rather than physical training. Smaller works hidden throughout the space invite visitors to slow down and pay closer attention to how they move through the exhibition. \n\n📅 August 20 to September 20\, 2026\n📍 TUR_telpa\, Tallinas iela 10-3\, Riga\nOpening hours: Wednesday to Sunday\, 13:00 to 18:00
