Creative gene
On June 6th the exhibition “Creative gene” was opened in Pakruojis for the 120th anniversary of the birth of one of the most prominent Lithuanian artists, Stasys Ušinskas. TARTLE has lent 9 artworks by Stasys Ušinskas for the exhibition.
Anniversary exhibition is one of the most important events for the 120 th anniversary of a talented countryman. The main objective of the exhibition is to pay particular attention to the roots of the artist, the land of Pakruoji, where childhood has passed, where the first creative inspirations have arisen.
The exhibition will operate in three cultural spaces: the Pakruoji synagogue, the awnings of the Pakruoji Fire Brigade society and the Paakruoji printing works. In each space, visitors will have a unique acquaintance with the creative heritage of the genius artist.
In the most important exhibition space, the Pakruoji synagogue, the full range of artistic creation will be revealed: from painting to stationery, from the display of the original puppet to the sketches of scenery and suits.
The work on the shelter of the Pakruoji Fire Brigade will reveal in various ways one of the most important reasons for the creation of Stasys Usinskas: the human figure.
Documentary material, photographs, and other authentic exhibits will be presented at the exhibition in the former Pakruoji printing house, revealing the waves in the artist's life and creativity, as well as the connection with the edge of Pakruoji.
The exhibition aims to actualize the personality, uniqueness and value of Stasys Usinskas.
