In 2015, a book came out of Liobytė's letters to cultural figures. It was dedicated to the 100th anniversary of her birth, and its launch was accompanied by various events to mark her activities among the cultural intelligentsia. For example, the Institute of Lithuanian Literature and Folklore held the conference ‘Aldona Liobytė ir jos laikas' (Aldona Liobytė and her Times) about her life and work (see: http://slaptas.nzidinys.lt/a/2015/07/16/aldona-liobyte-ir-jos-laikas/).
Many of the letters published in the book illustrate the everyday life of the intelligentsia under the Soviet regime. While her correspondence does not express strong anti-Soviet statements, readers may find many sarcastic and satirical comments on Soviet policy and Soviet cultural managers in the publication.

The exhibition displayed letters from Emil Cioran’s correspondence ofthe 1930s. It is worth mentioning that among the items exhibited were three unpublished letters sent by Constantin Noica to Emil Cioran. In these letters Noica reacts to articles published by the Cioran in the Romanian cultural press in 1933. Through these documents, visitors were introduced to the cultural atmosphere of interwar Romania, and to the intellectual milieu that shaped Emil Cioran’s personality. The exhibition was part of a broader initiative involving the Faculty of Letters and Arts of Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu and the National Foundation for Science and Arts, which comprised a conference dedicated to Emil Cioran and the launching of the two volumes of Emil Cioran’s works published by the Romanian Academy.

On the occasion of its 60th anniversary, the Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art (LCCA) declared year 2015 Hardijs Lediņš Year, highlighting his importance to Latvian contemporary art, his multifaceted and interdisciplinary activities, and his expansion of the boundaries of Latvian culture. The idea to mark this anniversary was a critical commentary on the tendency to create cultural cannons in which contemporary alternative culture was not taken into account. The opinion of the LCCA was that Hardijs Lediņš was also a part of the cannon of Latvian culture. A number of events took place during Hardijs Lediņš Year: reconstructions of performances (Binocular Dance Lessons, Walk to Bolderāja, the Kosmoss discotheque ), exhibitions of contemporary art, literary readings, multimedia performances, concerts, actions in parts of Riga that were important in the life of Hardijs Lediņš, and publications about him. The events were widely popularized by the media, and had a much greater impact on cultural milieus than was initially expected by the LCCA.
