Curatorial Essay & Exhibition Provenance

Monumental 3×2 meter paintings demand vast architectural breathing room. At MC2 Galleria (Krasta iela 68A, Riga), Happy Art Museum established an expansive, daily-accessible exhibition hall dedicated to 'Divine Comedy II' and 'Primum Mobile 2'.

Over two years of continuous public access with free admission, the MC2 exposition has served as the living laboratory and headquarters of the Divine Comedy collection — allowing visiting museum directors, diplomats, interior architects, and private collectors to experience the full physical scale and texture of the canvases in person.

In 2026, the venue also hosted the prestigious Art Embassy exhibition-auction alongside solo rotations of new Paradise and Purgatory triptychs.
