Imants Lancmanis | Self-balancing

Imants Lancmanis, a painter, art historian, and a specialist in heraldry and restoration of art and architectural monuments, compares his 55 years as Director of Rundale Palace to a large-scale installation. He handed over this position to the new director Laura Lūse last year. Lancmanis has left his “utopian island” to turn his full attention to painting – an activity he associates with a profound emotional experience. Lancmanis admits: “Many people consider me to be reserved and unsociable, but I actually perceive things very emotionally.”
