Mākslas taka Valguma mežā ir baudāma visu gadu, arī diennakts tumšajās stundās.
Taka ir gandrīz 2 km gara, tajā izveidoti trīs tematiski pastaigu loki. Sākuma lokā (ģimenēm ar bērniem, nevaļīgajiem) – Vārdadienu jeb Godu labirints, Vitolda Kucina gleznotie Latvijas novadu tautas tērpi, Austrijas mākslinieces Mariannes Ēvaldas spoguļlabirints, vēju zvans, atraktīvi foto pārsteigumi, redzes ilūzijas.
Jaunums 2021. gada Ziemassvētkos – mākslinieka Māra Subača apgleznotas lielformāta egles.
Baudītāji dodas nākamajos takas lokos: Jaunzēlandes daba Andra Apses fotogrāfijās un Latvijas daba Andra Eglīša fotogrāfijās. Valguma mežā skatāmas 100 spilgtas lielformāta dabas ainavas.
Andrim Apsem šī ir simboliska atgriešanās mājās – pasaulē pazīstamais foto mākslinieks dzimis Smārdes pagastā, bet visu apzināto mūžu nodzīvojis Jaunzēlandē.
Pastaiga Mākslas takā mežā sniedz dabas un mākslas, aktīvas, izzinošas un mierpilnas atpūtas sinerģiju.
The art trail is open
every day from 9:00 - 18:00
Valguma Mākslas takā mežā ir iespēja veselīgi izkustēties, ieelpot svaigu gaisu un baudīt pārsteidzošas ainavas gan dabā, gan bildēs!
Valguma Pasaule offers a great opportunity to experience art in the forest.
There you can enjoy large-format landscapes created by outstanding artists Andris Apse (New Zealand) and Andris Eglītis (Latvia) . To view all photos, you have to take a two-kilometer-long walk on Valgums forest trails.
All in one - the opportunity to move around healthily, breathe fresh air, and enjoy amazing landscapes both in nature and in pictures!
Entrance to the Art trail is included in Barefoot trail ticket
Andris Apse
A well-known landscape photographer in New Zealand
An exhibition of Andris Apse's works can be seen on the Valgums World Art Trail. It consists of large-format photographs that fit organically into the forest landscape.
Viesturs Serdāns, the owner of Valgums Pasaule, tells how they discovered this artist: “While abroad, we always go to bookstores, it also happened in New Zealand, and we noticed photo albums and calendars created by a man named Andris Apse. Interesting - such a Latvian name and surname! Later, we learned Andris Apse's address from the book and continued to find out his way of life. And it turned out that he was born on September 26, 1943, in Smārde - at the house "Eglāji", about a kilometer from the Valguma Pasaule. Now his works are here - in the heart of his motherland Latvia.
