Children's exhibition "BikiMETRS"

The exhibition is about the children's book character Bikibuka created by artist Rūta Briede.

BIKIBUK was born in 2012 in the publishing house "Liels un mazs". His mother, the author of the idea, artist Rūta Briede, together with the compiler of the poetry selection Inese Zander, gave him a name, while book designer Artis Briedis, creating the logo for the series, created the real look: Bikibuks is a small horn that reminds of an open book.

The original works on show in the exhibition give the opportunity to match them with the impression created by the book. But BIKIBUK exhibition also offers to live with the process of making a BIKIBUK: the exhibition is like pages from a BIKIBUK diary: you can learn about different "BIKIFACTS", study sketches and photographs, artists' comments, study the techniques used, get to know the prototypes - people and things, listen to songs on your phone using square codes, and hear the lyrics of the poems published in the BIKIBUK. And if you are a small and flexible viewer, you can crawl into some of the illustrations and feel the inside!

The exhibition will be on display until 31 March 2024. Opening hours of Jūrmala Culture centre: Monday-Friday – 13:00-18:00, Saturday – 11:00-18:00, Sunday – Closed.
