Summary for Studija 4/2010
The new issue of Studija poses the question "Has the 20th century ended?" on the cover. Many publications -- books, researches, compilations and stories recounting the different decades of the past century recently released in Latvia, have highly influenced the content of the magazine.
There are also reviews of this summer's exhibitions in Riga, and festivals in Reykjavik, Iceland, and Cesis.
The opening of the contemporary art museum MAXXI in Rome has become a major event for art institutions this year. You can evaluate the exposition by reading Barbara Fässler's article and her interview with one of the curators behind the exhibition, Gabi Scardi.
Also: Artist Baiba Baiba says in interview: "Somebody might be yearning for sweet, thoughtless peace, another -- for a kick in the stomach, to at least be woken up."
