"Arturs Berzins (1971, Latvia) – is one of the most interesting contemporary artists with his own unique, especially refined drawing-painting technique. The main emotional impulse is found in nature and in the environment, where the artist lives. And for that reason, the central role of Arturs Berzins’ art is the relationships between man and nature. In 2009, Arturs Berzins received his master’s degree in art from the Latvian Academy of Art, and, in 2014 - a second master’s degree in the science of art and the history of culture. He has regularly staged personal exhibitions since 2008 (more than 20) and is one of the most vivid representatives of contemporary art in Latvia today.
For his solo exhibitions "Works of Images" (gallery “Maksla XO"/17.12.2015.–19.01.2016.) and "Works of Images II" (Olaine history and art museum/09.11.–8.12.2016.) Arturs Berzins has been nominated for the prestigious Purvitis Prize 2017." */makslaxogalerija.lv/
