Lithuania - Biennale Arte 2015

Venice, Italy

"‘Museum’ is a project by Dainius Liškevičius which deconstructs the myths of Lithuanian art history that gained ground during the period of Soviet occupation."
Agnė Narušytė, art researcher, curator

"The story ‘Museum’ is a hyper-textual first-person narrative by Dainius Liškevičius, threading together, by logical, conceptual and formal links, Soviet-period forms of political protest presented at the exhibition, the historical personalities representing these forms, and cultural artefacts, with bits and pieces from the artist’s career and his art."
Giedrius Gulbinas, art researcher, curator

"In ‘Museum’, an important role is played by the question of whether an authentic version of art history exists, or the way in which authentic versions of art history are continually appropriated - in fact, must be appropriated. It is an attempt - among others - to represent missing (Western) developments in art."
Franciska Zólyom, art curator
