“Blue: as yellow is always accompanied with light, so it may be said that blue still brings a principle of darkness with it. This color has a peculiar and almost indescribable effect on the eye. As a hue it is powerful - but it is on the negative side, and in its highest purity is, as it were, a stimulating negation. Its appearance, then, is a kind of contradiction between excitement and repose.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Painting symposium exhibition Mark Rothko Art Center 25.9.-25.10.2020

16th International Painting Symposium Exhibition
Mark Rothko Art Center, Daugavpils, Latvia

25.9.-25.10.2020

In 2020, the international painting symposium in commemoration of Mark Rothko was held in Daugavpils for the sixteenth time, confirming the sustainability of this creative forum and reasserting its contribution to steering meaningful artistic processes in the fortress, the city of Daugavpils and its surroundings.
The chance to escape from the hectic rhythm of everyday life and explore a new place with its distinct identity and aura, its people, unique architecture and enchanting historical atmosphere, enabled the artists to focus exclusively on painting. Thus, the participants put their impressions of the things they saw, felt and experienced during this fortnight into their paintings through their individual and characteristic painterly styles, sharing with the viewers what they find most relevant and important in the present day.
A place and a sense of place inspired each artist to experiment and, to a degree, turn away from “the norm” – use other materials, methods or techniques and explore their preferred topics from a fresh and different perspective.
The 16th International Painting Symposium “Mark Rothko 2020” brought together Vija Zariņa (Latvia), Kaspars Zariņš (Latvia), Nataļja Marinoha (Latvia), Uldis Čamans (Latvia), Romualdas Balinskas (Lithuania), Tomas Rudokas (Lithuania) and Rose-Mari Torpo (Finland).

Rose-Mari Torpo - Square
My work is a stone installation located by the bird watchtower in Reila, Rihtniemi. I collected stones from the surroundings and near by beach and reorganised them underneath the bird watchtower. The work is a temporary and subtle change in nature. It will be affected and changed by the weather, animals and people. The unique and beautiful state of the location functions as a base as well as inspiration for my work. I have painted and coloured white squares on the stones as well as modelled some new stones from white clay.

Chroma - paintings
Rose-Mari Torpo
Gallery Aarni
5.2.-1.3.2020

Welcome to the opening on Tuesday February 4th from 5-7pm!

My work explores fundamental elements of painting, the relationship between colour, line and form. The important factors in my paintings are movement, rhythm, layering and new spaces created by colour. My painting is process-based and through experimentation of different materials I create a series of works. The theme of the latest series is a study on perception and understanding. By using materials that reflect light I have created paintings that don’t have a stable visuality, instead they are in continuous movement according to the viewers standpoint. Spatiality and multi-sensoriality become key components of my paintings.
