Member News | Invitation to the exhibition “Autumn in the Park”

News

September 27, 2023

Vilnius Academy of Art Kaunas faculty gallery presents a solo exhibition of landscape paintings “Autumn in the Park” by the younger generation painter Mykolė Ganusauskaitė.

Vernissage on Wednesday, October 04, 7 p.m.

Painter Mykolė Ganusauskaitė, whose artist name is Mykolé, was born in Kaunas in 1987. As a child, living in the city centre, she happily attended her first afterschool art classes at Mykolas Žilinskas Art Gallery. After finishing primary school, she moved with her parents to Vilnius, where she continued her studies at the M. K. Čiurlionis School of Arts. She obtained her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees at the National School of Fine Arts (Les Beaux Arts de Paris). When she was in the French capital, as well as when she later returned to Vilnius or travelled, the artist consistently devoted herself to a single task: a contemporary interpretation of the landscape genre.

 
Mykolé’s starting point is always the upfront impression of the landscape and the following meticulous studies of nature en plein air. For this purpose, she creates small sketches in watercolour and chalk pastels and takes photographs. From the material thus gathered, she later paints in oil or acrylic in her studio, where she concentrates and synthesises the visual and emotional impressions she has experienced and the analytical research she has conducted.
 
There are no people depicted in these landscapes, not even as small staffage figures, but their presence is always felt.
One of the main motifs that interest the landscapist is parks. Mykolé takes an interest in parks as landscapes that are shaped by human hands. Trees, shrubs, lawns, flowerbeds, paths, avenues, bodies of water, and panoramic views in parks are all elements of nature touched by human beings, staged. A park is not just a creation of nature but also of culture, always.

Tapytoja Mykolė Ganusauskaitė, menininkės vardas Mykolé, 1987 gimė Kaune. Vaikystėje gyvendama miesto centre su džiaugsmu ji lankė savo pirmąjį dailės būrelį Mykolo Žilinsko galerijoje. Baigusi pradinę mokyklą su tėvais ji persikėlė į Vilnių kur toliau mokėsi M.K.Čiurlionio menų gimnazijoje. Bakalauro ir magistro laipsnius įgijo studijuodama Nacionalinėje dailės mokykloje (Les Beaux Arts de Paris). Jau Prancūzijos sostinėje, kaip ir vėliau grįžusi į Vilnių ar keliaudama, menininkė nuosekliai pasišventė vieninteliam uždaviniui – šiuolaikinei peizažo žanro interpretacijai.

Mykolės išeities taškas visada yra betarpiškas kraštovaizdžio įspūdis ir jį sekančios kruopščios natūros studijos plenere. Šiam tikslui tapytoja kuria mažus eskizus akvarele ir kreidinėmis pastelėmis, fotografuoja. Iš taip sukauptos medžiagos vėliau jau savo dirbtuvėje ji tapo aliejumi ar akrilu, kuriuose koncentruoja ir sintetina patirtus regimuosius emocionalius įspūdžius bei analitinius tyrimus.

Žmonės šiuose peizažuose nevaizduojami net kaip mažos stafažo figūrėlės, tačiau visada jaučiame jų buvimą.
Vienas pagrindinių peizažistę dominančių motyvų – parkai. Mykolę parkai domina kaip gamtovaizdžiai, kuriuos formavo žmogus. Medžiai, krūmai, vejos, gėlynai, takai, alėjos, vandens telkiniai ir panoraminiai vaizdiniai čia yra žmogaus paliesta, inscenizuota gamta. Parkas visada ne tik gamtos, bet ir kultūros kūrinys.

Prancūzų institutas Lietuvoje, parodų salė – Didžioji g. 1 Vilnius
I-IV 9 -18:30, V 9 – 18, VI 10-14

Įėjimas nemokamas

Parodos atidarymas rugsėjo 9d., 16val.
 
Maloniai kviečiame į Prancūzijos lietuvių menininkės, Viktorijos Antonovič, darbų parodą!
 
“Matuoti šilumą” žymi pirmąją V. Antonovič asmeninę parodą Lietuvoje. Joje pristatomos rinktinės forografijos ir piešiniai, sukurti 2010 – 2023 metais ir dar neeksponuoti.
Parodos pavadinimas sukelia daug asociacijų, ar tai būtų matuoti temperatūrą sergant, įvertinti gyvų kūnų ir objektų išskiriamą šilumą, nustatyti spalvinę temperatūrą kelvinais, ar stebėti klimato pokyčių poveikį. Visi šie veiksmai traukia V. Antonovič dėmesį, o jos žvilgsnis, susiduriant su efektyvių nurodymų, tiems pokyčiams spręsti, stoka, uoliai ieško išeities. Vienas sprendimų – stropiai stebėti, įnirtingai fiksuoti ir amplifikuoti pastebėtus vaizdus.
Viktorija Antonovič (g. 1988 m. Vilniuje) studijavo Paryžiaus Aukštojoje Nacionalinėje Dailės Mokykloje (École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris), lydima video menininkės bei studijos vadovės, Dominique Belloir. 2015 metais su pagyrimu apsigynė diplominį darbą-parodą. Mokslų metu išryškėjo jai artimos medijos: video, fotografija ir piešimas. Jos video darbai buvo rodomi skirtingose Europos šalyse: Prancūzijoje, Austrijoje, Jungtinėje Karalystėje, Kroatijoje bei Lietuvoje. Nuo 2012 metų gyvena ir kuria Paryžiuje.
 
Paroda veiks iki rugsėjo 30 dienos.
Parodą organizuoja Prancūzų Institutas Lietuvoje, 25-mečio proga.
 
09/09/2023 – 30/09/2023
Institut Français de Lituanie, salle d’expositions – Didžioji 1, Vilnius
I-IV 9h -18h30, V 9h – 18h, VI 10h-14h
Entrée libre

Le vernissage a lieu le 9 septembre, à partir de 16h.

Nous avons le plaisir de vous convier à l’exposition de Viktorija Antonovič, artiste lituanienne en France !

“Mesurer la chaleur” marque la première exposition personnelle de Viktorija Antonovič en Lituanie. Elle met en lumière une sélection de photographies et de dessins réalisés entre 2010 et 2023 et restés inédits jusqu’à présent.
Le titre de l’exposition évoque l’idée d’une multitude de mesures, que ce soit le relevé de température lors d’une fièvre, l’évaluation des émissions de chaleur émanant des corps vivants et des objets, l’étude de température de couleur en kelvins, ou le constat des répercussions des bouleversements climatiques. Toutes ces circonstances attirent l’attention de Viktorija Antonovič dont le regard, face à l’absence de directives efficaces pour remédier aux dérèglements liés au climat, cherche ardemment une échappatoire. Celle-ci se trouve dans une observation méticuleuse, une captation frénétique et une amplification des scènes observées.
Viktorija Antonovič (née en 1988 à Vilnius) a étudié à l’École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, accompagnée de la vidéaste et chef d’atelier Dominique Belloir. En 2015, elle a obtenu son diplôme avec mention. Pendant ses études, elle a développé une affinité pour la vidéo, la photographie et le dessin. Ses vidéos ont été projetées dans différents pays européens : en France, en Autriche, au Royaume-Uni, en Croatie et en Lituanie. Depuis 2012, elle vit et travaille à Paris.
 

L’exposition aura lieu jusqu’au 30 septembre.

L’exposition est organisée par l’Institut français de Lituanie à l’occasion de son 25e anniversaire.
