EXHIBITION "IN PATHS OF ČIURLIONIS"

Approaching the 150^th anniversary of the birth of M. K. Čiurlionis and actualizing the objects of the National M. K. Čiurlionis Route, we present an exhibition of the senior students of the National M. K. Čiurlionis school of arts "In Paths of Čiurlionis". "

Every year, a combined group of 9–11 grade students, young artists, participates in a one-day trip - plein air, in order to look at the legacy of M. K. Čiurlionis's work through the eyes of a modern artist. During the trip, students draw, paint, sketch, choose motifs for compositions while viewing the memorial expositions in the House-Museum of M. K. Čiurlionis in Druskininkai, recording examples of local architecture and the landscape of Dzūkija.

This trip-plein air is visually summed up by the mobile exhibition of students' works "In Paths of Čiurlionis", which is presented for the first time in the House-Museum of M. K. Čiurlionis. Students present the images captured in various exhibition spaces, remembering the creative biography of M. K. Čiurlionis. A collection of more than a dozen students' works is on display, showing a variety of themes and techniques. Landscapes dominate, the surroundings of M. K. Čiurlionis House-Museum, other important objects - the paths on which the most prominent Lithuanian creator of all time - M. K. Čiurlionis walked more than a hundred years ago.
