VILNIUS’ CONTEMPORARY ART GALLERIES / LITHUANIA

MINOLTA DIGITAL CAMERA

A reading room and cinema, encouraging dialogue between art, film and other media, can also be found at the center. The Contemporary Art Centre in Vilnius – Vokieciu st. 2, Vilnius – known locally as Šiuolaikinio Meno Centras, is one of the leading art institutions in the Baltic region. Its focus is on displaying the latest international trends by organizing up to six large-scale exhibitions per year, in addition to many smaller projects. http://www.cac.lt/engallery2.1

Past displays at Titanikas – Maironio st. 3, Vilnius – have included collage and paintings by Vincas Kisarauskas, and an individualistic approach to neo-expressionism by Aistė Kirvelytė. Titanikas is the name of the exhibition hall belonging to the Vilnius Academy of Arts, the largest and oldest art university in the Baltics. It focuses on modern art, design and graphics through hosting a diverse variety of exhibitions, not limited to student shows. http://www.vda.lt/lt/gallery3.1

That is the only gallery in Lithuania that concentrates on both visual arts and contemporary jewellery craftsmanship. Into that gallery, experimentation is prevalent in the gallery’s jewelry exhibitions – (AV17) GALERIJA, Aušros Vartų st. 17, Vilnius – like that featuring Francine Oeyen, who paints and embroiders discarded materials to create colorful, eye-catching pieces. The gallery aims to promote Lithuanian art to an international audience, as well as introduce foreign artists to Vilnius. http://av17gallery.com/?lang=en One of the leading principles of the gallery is the collaboration not only with well-known contemporary Lithuanian and foreign artists but also with young aspiring contemporary authors.
