Radvila Palace Museum of Art is open with an exhibition of international importance\u00a0<\/strong>Oleksandr Bohomazov. Creative Laboratory<\/em>,<\/strong> presenting previously unseen works by the distinguished artist of Ukrainian avant-garde, art theorist, and educator Olaksandr Bohomazov (1880\u20131930).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Captivating from the very first glance with sophisticated artistry and a powerful artistic temperament the works by O. Bohomazov hold a special place in Ukrainian art history and offer an opportunity to reflect on the artist\u2019s place in the world-wide avant-garde movement. The curator of the exhibition Olena Kashuba-Volvach shares that \u2018The exhibition\u00a0Oleksandr Bohomazov: Creative Laboratory<\/em>\u00a0invites the viewer to plunge into the depths of the artist\u2019s creative process. Numerous sketches and studies presented along with his paintings offer an opportunity to see how pictorial ideas are born \u201cat the tip of the pencil\u201d and turn into consummate artistic images.\u2019<\/p>\n

The exhibition East in the West<\/em> by the interdisciplinary art group Baltos kandys (White Moths)<\/p>\n

Votes & Voices. Swiss Campaign Posters from 1918 to the Present<\/em><\/p>\n

Visiting the exhibition of works by the recipient of the Lithuanian National Prize for Culture and Arts Egl\u0117 Ridikait\u0117, it\u2018s worth paying special attention to the work Cultured Floor<\/em>. For the artist, fragments of forgotten beauty serve as references to a bond of love, traces of faith which inspire her to go forward. It can be a person, a holy site or simply a cherished place in Vilnius. Last summer, she entered a synagogue in G\u0117li\u0173 Street to see the restoration in progress and noticed an ornament on the floor. She washed off the construction dust, transferred the pattern onto a plastic sheet, and now, during the exhibition, she is \u2018highlighting\u2019 the image with aerosol paint. Experiencing these works during the night might unfold new and mysterious experiences.<\/p>\n

\u0160vent\u0117 (<\/em>Celebration)<\/em> is a rather intriguing installation at the exhibition East in the West<\/em> by the artist group White Moths (Baltos Kandys) .<\/p>\n

The relationship of the group\u00a0Baltos kandys<\/em>\u00a0with the East is twofold. By delving deep into the archetypal laws of world creation, the artists touch on images the roots of which reach not only to the symbols and rituals embedded in our tradition, but also those that exist in many other cultures. That is why in many art pieces, our fruits and herbs fit so organically with Buddhist ornamentation (Mandala<\/em>), and Lithuanian and Far Eastern dishes find themselves on a common feast table (Celebration<\/em>). It is a genuine part of life consciously told by the members of the group through their pieces.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Vaclovas RATAS. Beyond the Equator<\/em><\/p>\n

The exhibition \u00a0<\/strong>In Pursuit of Paris: the Stories of the VAA Residence Cit\u00e9 Internationale des Arts<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong> will surprise its visitors with a wide collection of memories compiled in biographical artefacts, diaries, personal confessions, and might require one to pay close attention not just while looking or watching, but also reading or listening in order to fully experience the passionate love for arts as well as French culture.<\/p>\n

The life and work of Vaclovas Ratas (1910\u20131973) spans several continents: from Europe to Australia, and the United States, leaving his distinct mark wherever he went, especially on the other side of the equator. The artist arrived in Australia when he was already an experienced graphic artist with his own style. During the twenty-three years spent in Australia, the artist established his name in the country\u2019s extensive graphic art history. Now, curated by Dr Tojana Ra\u010di\u016bnait\u0117 and Regina Urbonien\u0117, the works of the artist are brought back and thoroughly presented in the exhibition at the Lithuanian Diaspora Art Museum as of 11 June, 2021.<\/p>\n

Sacred Vilnius: Pilgrimage from the Gates of Dawn to Kalvarija Way of the Cross<\/em><\/p>\n

This two-part exhibition is hosted by two museums: the display of the Picture Gallery of the Lithuanian National Museum of Art deals with the iconographic features of the temples and shrines along the pilgrim route, while the Church Heritage Museum invites to see different pieces of art connected to these temples and chapels. The displays are linked by the extant paintings from the chapels of Vilnius Calvary, part of which were thought to have been lost in the wake of the 1963 destruction. The exhibit evokes the former charm of the landscape of Kalvarija and presents, to the public and even researchers of Christian art, the little-known pieces of sacred art, rescued from the blown-up chapels of Kalvarija, the Chapel of \u0160nipi\u0161k\u0117s, and other places.<\/p>\n

Nomeda Saukien\u0117. A Small Retrospective<\/em><\/p>\n

The curator of the exhibition Ramut\u0117 Rachlevi\u010di\u016bt\u0117 writes, that \u2018a sensitive and fragile relationship saturated with existentialist premonition and fatalism between live and seemingly dying creatures and close commune with the earthly substance of nature are the most outstanding features characterising the thirty-year period of the artist\u2019s creative endeavour. A green den she paints reminds of a cosy shelter and a trap where human beings and animal creatures live their lives in a fairy-tale rich in symbols and metaphors.\u2019<\/p>\n
