A brand new art and culture website,
Arterritory.com, has been launched in Latvian,
Russian, and English. This is a new territory on
the internet, devoted to a survey of Baltic,
Russian, and Scandinavian art. The website also
compiles the most important events in the visual
arts calendar.
The website's target audience are readers who are
interested in contemporary cultural phenomena and
who want to make their life more interesting and
exciting. The creators of Arterritory.com are
convinced that art is an open world, one that
provides a place not only for professionals, but
also for connoisseurs and lovers of art.
Arterritory.com will take a peek inside artists'
studios, listen to their opinions, and document
their participation in the most important art
events. The website will become your discussion
partner with whom you can exchange opinions about
exhibits or art and design events in Riga,
Helsinki, St. Petersburg, Vilnius, Tallinn,
Copenhagen, Moscow, and elsewhere.
Arterritory.com is also your calendar of
important occasions, where someone has already
marked all the 'must-see' events.
The creators of the website understand that art
today is not a closed space; it interacts and
connects with other fields of culture. Precisely
for this reason, the website also offers
information about cinema, design, fashion,
architecture, and books.
Readers can learn about the newest books and
regional art periodicals; find out the latest in
fashion and design; and travel the world as
culture tourists, planning their route based on
recommendations developed together by
Arterritory.com and Anothertravelguide.com.
The website was created by a team of
professionals with many years of experience in
the fields of visual arts and design: philosopher
and design theorist Anna Iltnere, art critic and
curator Daiga RudzÇte, and fashion journalist and
Anothertravelguide.com editor in chief Una
Meistere. The visual form of Arterritory.com was
created by graphic designer JÇnis Notte, who
currently resides in New York.
'Arterritory.com is a logical continuation of the
alternative guidebook Another Travel Guide Riga,
which came about through a collaboration between
the online magazine for independent travelers
Anothertravelguide.com and the cultural project
agency Indie,' say the creators of
Arterritory.com. 'We are convinced that this
region is a territory which the world hasn't
fully gotten to know yet. And it depends on us
alone whether the world will have the chance to
discover the cultural diversity, intensity of
thought, and uniqueness of this region, which
throughout history, as well as today, has allowed
for the birth of so many brilliant figures in art
and culture. These figures can still surprise and
inspire us as an inexhaustible foundation of
creative energy.'
Arterritory.com's closest collaboration partners
are the online magazine for independent travelers
Anothertravelguide.com and the cultural project
agency Indie.
