On March 20, the joint painting exhibition Heart and Nail opened at the Chapel \u2013 the Cultural Creation Center of Anyk\u0161t\u0117nai of the World (Vilniaus St. 36). The exhibition invites visitors to see a collection of works created during plein-air painting sessions held at the Tro\u0161k\u016bnai Bernardine Monastery. <\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
The Tro\u0161k\u016bnai plein-airs are a living tradition that began when Saulius Filipavi\u010dius was parish priest. Today, this initiative is being continued by painter and curator Ausma Bankauskait\u0117. Over the past six years, many professional artists from Vilnius and Kaunas have created here. It is a meeting of different summers, different perspectives, and one shared silence. <\/h5>\n
As exhibition participant and painter Akvil\u0117 Linkevi\u010dien\u0117 says: \u201cThe heart is the place where a person truly lives. Where the heart is, there is a person\u2019s home. As it is said in Scripture: \u2018Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.\u2019 And what is a nail? A nail can be a wound, but it can also be a promise\u2014that even pain one day becomes a place of resurrection. A nail is history. Or perhaps the philosopher\u2019s stone? Or is it the point of history, or its very essence? Sometimes it is a sign of pain that pierces deeply and does not let you forget. Can the heart exist without the nail, as love without sorrow?\u201d<\/h5>\n
Until April 7, stop by the Chapel \u2013 the Cultural Creation Center of Anyk\u0161t\u0117nai of the World (Vilniaus St. 36), where, we hope, you will find a heart and a nail that speak to you personally. <\/h5>\n
The opening was attended by K\u0119stutis Tubis, Mayor of Anyk\u0161\u010diai District Municipality, also a painter Ausma Bankauskait\u0117, the artists, members of the Tro\u0161k\u016bnai community and the longtime parish priest of Tro\u0161k\u016bnai, Rev. Canon Saulius Filipavi\u010dius. Live music by Anyk\u0161\u010diai pianist Guoda Indri\u016bnait\u0117 added to the atmosphere. Thank you to everyone who came! <\/h5>\n
