Nothing Changes. A Chronicle of Political Life shows works from the Zuzāns Collection, in which Ivars Poikāns illustrates events of 20 years ago featuring well known Latvian politicians. Many of them remain active in political life, enjoying the fruits of the country they shaped. The segment of time that has passed since the making of the exhibited works is an excellent reference point to dispassionately look at the past, at the same time recalling the context of these events.

The popular artist's range of subjects has always revolved around social processes and political trends. Using deforming aesthetics and ironic intonation in his works, the artist draws attention to actions, that, in his opinion, break the norms of ethics and good faith. Poikāns' artistic mission is to represent the critically-minded segment of society. The artist enjoys public trust, being a sort of intermediary between public and private opinion. Poikāns' art resembles philosophical buffoonery – a conversation where everyone is invited to take part.
