The exhibition of works dedicated to the 35th anniversary of the Baltic Belarusian Artists' Association 'Mayu Honar' ('I Have Honor') will be held at the exhibition hall of the Mentendorff House in Riga until February 28.
The exhibition features paintings, watercolors, pastels, lithographs, artistic photographs, and more than 50 works of art created in other techniques by 18 female artists.
The association "Baltic Belarusian Artistic Association 'Mayu Honar'" was founded in 1991 under the auspices of the Latvian Belarusian Cultural Association 'Svitankak' ('Dawn'), which has been operating in Latvia since 1988. The association is considered a contemporary of 'Awakening' and 'Barricades,' when it fought alongside the Latvian National Front for the restoration of an independent Latvian state.
The association has been registered in Riga as a separate creative organization since 2012. Currently, it unites 23 artists from Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia.
Exhibitions of works by artists from the 'Mayu Honar' association have taken place in many locations in Latvia, as well as in Belarus, Estonia, Lithuania, and the Czech Republic. The Baltic Association of Belarusian Artists regularly participates in joint exhibitions of artists from national minorities, which are organized annually by the Association of Latvian National Cultural Societies named after Itta Kozakevich.
