From 19 June to 23 August 2026, the Art Museum Riga Bourse in Riga (Doma laukums 6) invites to visit The Revelation, a solo exhibition by Spanish artist Lidó Rico.
This exhibition aims to serve as a catalyst for new emotions through the dialogue between contemporary art and the museum’s permanent collection.
Starting from the context of the building of the Art Museum Riga Bourse, which offers a particular journey through history, extraordinary possibilities for dialogue and adaptation of contemporary art to the environment are created, enabling a sensory experience for the visitor whose impression expands into unimagined places. The singularity of this synergy projects the birth of a new way of looking at the past through the present, since, throughout the journey across the different rooms of the permanent exhibition, what could be considered a temporal anomaly, ultimately becomes a fascinating encounter filled with unexpected surprises.
We begin with the welcome of the main character, who serves as the guiding thread of our journey – the figure of the gondolier. He is the host who guides us through the different spaces of the museum from the very beginning of our visit. Absorbed in thought, the gondolier receives us in the building’s courtyard, attempting to decipher the reason behind that fragmented boat suspended from the glass ceiling. From this point onwards, a reinterpretation and accompaniment throughout the collection’s itinerary emerges, offering the viewer a new perspective.
