Participant Profile

Kristaps Gulbis

Latvia
Jurmala
Visual

Gulbis creates temporary public interventions that stress notions of art world accessibility and the slippage between public and private spheres. His projects often involve witty social interactions and have included a mobile Irish pub, a sculpture that invites the populace to become their own monuments and designs for a National Costume for the EU. He hoped to initiate similar public artworks in a culturally-diverse area of the US focusing on communities with limited exposure to contemporary art.
