Found inside a renovated and enlarged building that once housed the Museum of the Revolution of the Lithuanian Soviet Socialist Republic, this bold endeavour showcases the work of a multitude of artists of Lithuanian origin from the 20th and 21st century. Among the commendable cast of contributors, examples on permanent display include work from a diverse range of artists including the Jewish sculptor Jacques Lipchitz (1891-1973) and the country’s most outstanding documentary photographer Antanas Sutkus (b. 1939). The museum is organised to highlight particular styles, eras and political attitudes to art in Lithuania under the numerous regimes of the past century and also stages temporary exhibitions that are well worth visiting.
