VILNIUS GALLERY WEEKEND: 22-25.10.2020
This year, the 5 th edition of the Vilnius Gallery Weekend brings together over 30 different art spaces. The participants include not only private galleries, but also project spaces run by artists and independent curators, galleries of well-established organizations with deep traditions, as well as museums, art centres and private collectors.
Lithuanian Art Centre TARTLE invites visitors to discover provocative art from the interwar period. The third TARTLE exhibition presents a unique part of the collection, which reveals a broad spectrum of art life in between the wars and during World War II in Vilnius and Kaunas. A contrasting exhibition features a variety of works and asks its viewers “who would you be, if you lived in the interwar: a nurturer of tradition and legacy in Vilnius – the historic capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania or a builder of temporary but new and modern capital Kaunas?”
Artists: Adomas Galdikas, Antanas Gudaitis, Jurgis Hopenas, Bronislovas Jamontas, Juozas Mikėnas, Tymonas Niesiolovskis, Petras Rimša, Antanas Samuolis, Liudomiras Slendzinskis, Stasys Ušinskas, Justinas Vienožinskis, Antanas Žmuidzinavičius.
