From 24 April to 6 July, the Riga Photography Biennial will offer a wide-ranging program of exhibitions and education events, giving the floor to emerging artists and curators from the Baltic and other countries who have addressed aspects of the theme ‘invisible but present’, the organizers have announced.
“The Riga Photography Biennial (RPB) was founded in 2015 and the NEXT 2025 program will take place on its 10th anniversary. The Biennial’s Off-year program name ‘Next’ embodies the idea of movement. ‘Next’ is a transition—never safe, predictable or known in advance, it has a direct and irrevocable presence that constantly poses the question: Is whatever comes next linked to what was before? NEXT Program provides a platform for emerging artists and curators who offer an original, contemporary vision and whose work encourages an exploration of the power of the image,” said a release.
The central events of NEXT 2025 are two Awards – ‘Seeking the latest in photography!’ and ‘Emerging Curator!’ laureates’ exhibitions. For the first time in 2025, young curators from all three Baltic States were invited to apply for the award.
