The World of Landscapes (Volume II) I 2013
Art album The World of Landscapes (Volume II)
Compiled by N. Tumėnienė. Vilnius, LAWIN, 2013.
The sequel to the album The World of Landscapes (its volume I was published in 2010) encompasses the part of Lithuanian painting from the LAWIN art collection from 1940 to the present day. The publication provides a consistent description of how forms of artistic expression were changing in the second half of the 20th century. The material, arranged based on art issues, illustrates artists’ attempts to push back the boundaries of realism and reveals the influence of Impressionism and the Paris school on artistic work. Readers are familiarised with the contrasting colours of Expressionism and manifestations of Surrealism in works by artists of the new generation, and with Abstractionism where only traces and hints of landscape remain.
