A fair in the sky
From 21 to 25 September 2022, ART RIGA FAIR set up inside Zunda Towers at Raņķa dambis 30, a multifunctional high rise that had only just opened on the Riga skyline. Latvian public broadcaster LTV covered the opening, describing the venue as a huge hall inside one of the tallest buildings in the city and calling the fair the largest professional art market in Latvia, with around 50 local and foreign artists taking part.
