A space for discovery and co-creation

Lithuania fosters unconventional creative partnerships

Lithuania’s best creators have always had artistic visions which stretched beyond the country’s borders. These are global ideas, whether addressing social issues like climate change, or interrogating the very process of art itself.  From works of modern theatre music and dance, to disrupting art movements like Fluxus, Lithuania has always had its fingers on the cultural pulse of now. What makes their art special is the emphasis it places on the collective. And it’s this idea of collaboration that underpins the Lithuanian art scene to this day. From prize winning teams to breathtaking spaces where artists can gather to dream, discuss and produce, the emphasis is always on co-creation.

New perspectives
Creative partnerships
Inspiring spaces

Lithuania’s artists have made their presence felt on the global stage. For prominent examples, you need look no further than the revolution in filmmaking that was put in motion by the Lithuanian emigre Jonas Mekas. And in the world of modern art, one of the most playful and unique art movements of the American Art scene of the 1950’s Fluxus was co-created by the Lithuanian Jurgis Mačiūnas (George Maciunas).
