ARUNAS ZILYS 2/3 – He was born in 1953 in Vilnius (the capitol and oldest city in Lithuania). This small country, whose ancient language is most closely related to Sanskrit, preserved agricultural roots and an extensive mythology similar to Norse traditions, the resourceful and artistic Lithuanians have an unshakable sense of identity. Zilys attended the M.K. Ciurlionis School of Art in Vilnius, and graduated with a degree in graphic arts in 1973. He then attended the Vilnius Academy of Fine Arts, where he took a degree in 1979. Zilys began his career in the arts as both a painter and a jewelry maker.
ARUNAS ZILYS 3/3 – A style this distinctive comes along but rarely in the art world. A growing number of private and corporate collectors are testament to Zilys’ unique gift. He has had numerous one-man shows in galleries and museums in Europe and America. Fantastic hybrid creatures stalk through a pointillist landscape of vivid paintbox colors. Calmly they stare out from the canvases, inviting you to join them on their mysterious quests.
