The Latvian Artists' Union gallery has opened the exhibition "Construction of Infinity," dedicated to artist Leo Preiss's 80th birthday. Visitors can view a newly created cycle made up of 18 paintings.

Geometric forms and spatial compositions occupy a central place in the artist's work, creating a distinctive sense of order for the viewer. Leo Preiss himself describes his approach to art as a search for spatial order and rhythm.

A dialogue between the visible and the invisible

In the artist's own words, his works represent a dialogue between the visible and the invisible, between concrete form and infinite possibilities. This idea is echoed in the exhibition's title, which highlights the interplay between infinity and construction.

The new cycle of paintings brings together the artist's long-standing exploration of geometry and visual order, offering viewers a chance to see the latest stage of his creative path, timed to coincide with a significant personal milestone — his 80th birthday.
