LMA Mazo izstāžu sērijas nedaudz šķobīgais konteksts (un apgaismojuma neesamība) rada šaubas – kas tad šeit īsti ir māksla, un kas nav. Pirmais iespaids ir par “smaržu mākslu” – atdalītajā telpā ir izteikts augļu košlājamo gumiju aromāts (vai arī tas no vecās siermaizes). Ieskatoties, pamanāmi nelieli fotoattēli un skaitļu švīkas, kas atzīstami labi iederas izstādes koncepcijā – ja arī līdz galam nepārliecina.
The somewhat wobbly context of this series of exhibitions (and the lack of lighting) make for some uncertainty as to what is part of the exhibition and what isn’t. The first impression is of some kind of “olfactory art” – the separated space is permeated with the flavour of fruit chewing gum (or could it be the rotting sandwich on the desk). On a more careful inspection, one notices tiny photos and scribbles of numbers that fit the concept reasonably well – even if not quite convincingly.
