Then Again The authors of the works led by the artists shared various aspects of E. Veidenbaum’s personality and literary heritage, which inspired the creation of artwork. Anda Lace at work Oh Veidenbaum, Oh, Veidenbaum The image, portrait and creative work of Veidenbaum are still being used and interpreted in a wide variety of contexts and ways, although in fact we know so little about him. Andris Breže – Like the 1995 exhibition, he interpreted the most popular poem of E. Veidenbaum How swans white feeds go, Highlights its duality and emotionally opposite mood. Andris Eglītis is also inspired by this poem – his six meters high Heavy cloud As if embodied the hopes of Veidenbaum’s poem and the craving, and at the same time desperately desperate a hopeless feeling. A bright accent in the landscape is Eric Boža’s work Veidenbaum’s brille, the other halfwho calls not only the missing side of Veidenbaum’s eyeglasses on the museum’s exhibit, but also his uninhabited, premature life, the poet’s creative heritage as an intellectual and education symbol in Latvian culture, and the other side of which Weitenbaum looks at us today.
