In 2015, the Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art (LCCA) celebrated the year of Hardijs Lediņš and in the autumn of 2016, it released a book entitled Workshop for the Restoration of Unfelt Feelings. Juris Boiko and Hardijs Lediņš. The same year, an exhibition of Juris Boiko's works opened at the Latvian National Museum of Art. The Workshop for the Restoration of Unfelt Feelings (NSRD) was one of the most significant phenomena of the Latvian art scene in the 1980s, as it quite literally expanded the boundaries of art. Along with its core members, Juris Boiko and Hardijs Lediņš, a number of artists, musicians, architects and other talents were active in it from 1982 to 1989. Estonian art critic Indrek Grigor reviewed Ieva Astahovska and Māra Žeikare's book on The Workshop for the Restoration of Unfelt Feelings, which served as the starting point for their conversation.
