SELF-PERSPECTIVE
Here I present in person what I have laid on canvas, what I have touched, and how it works. Will it work, does it work today? These questions come up with each brushstroke and, it seems, every day.
I wanted it to be a feast, but it’s too painful for a feast. I understand that I’m myself not “festive”. I wish everything were in many different ways, every day. Because it’s human. I’m assembling and putting together a perspective of sorts the way it seems possible today. Or, perhaps, because it has fallen into places in this particular way.
This collection is something like a self-portrait in perspective in different roles, which has been constantly taking shape from 2007 to 2022.

The exhibition Self-Perspective by Andrius Zakarauskas is a view of his creative biography prompted by his anniversary. The narrative created by the painter is laconic, generalizing but not claiming to be objective, self-reflective but open to a dialogue, retrospective but implying possible sequels of tomorrow.
Opening hours of the gallery: IV–VI 4 p.m.–7 p.m., VII 2 p.m.–5 p.m.
