Is This Even Art? is Backdoor Market’s take on the blurred lines between street culture, fashion, and art. This pop-up exhibition challenges conventional ideas of what is considered art and where traditional boundaries end. It blends clothing, photography, graffiti, and spatial installations – bringing together Baltic artists who reimagine what art can be, while holding onto the raw nostalgia of the streets. It's a dialogue between past and future, between what's familiar and what’s next. For four days only, step into a space where real conversations, creativity, and community come alive. Meet familiar faces, make new connections, and feel the energy we’ve all been missing. Join us during Riga Art Week at the Backdoor Market Pop-up Gallery and be a part of the movement to bring realness back.
About the gallery
The Backdoor Market Pop-up Gallery is a temporary space located at Veldze, created to showcase the intersection of street culture, fashion, and contemporary art. Designed by the Backdoor Market team, the pop-up gallery opens for a limited time, transforming into a raw platform where clothing, photography, graffiti, and community come together – bringing the energy of the streets indoors. This is more than just a gallery. It’s a meeting point for ideas, real connections, and the new wave of creative culture.
