Exhibition \u201cUnfamiliar \u010ciurlionis. The Vilnius Society of Art I\u201d<\/strong>

\nOpening 6 pm, March 29th<\/sup>, 2023<\/p>\n

During a short period in Vilnius from 1907 to 1908, \u010ciurlionis joined the city\u2019s artistic life and strived to revive and strengthen it. His activities in the Lithuanian Art Society are well known, but he also participated in another one, the Vilnius Art Society. At the founding meeting on 29 February 1907, he drafted the Society\u2019s statutes, and at the Society\u2019s first spring exhibition in 1909, he exposed his pastels. The Vilnius Art Society aimed to unite artists of different ethnicities and spread and develop art. The Society was headed by the burgomaster of Vilnius, Micha\u0142 W\u0119s\u0142awski<\/em>, and his deputy was the painter Ivan Rybakov; its members included Lithuanians Petras Rim\u0161a, Mikalojus Konstantinas \u010ciurlionis, and Antanas \u017dmuidzinavi\u010dius, Poles J\u00f3zef Ba\u0142zukiewicz and Stanis\u0142aw Filibert Fleury, Jews Lev Antokolsky, Mozes Leibowski, and Ber Zalkind, Russians Vasiliy Barmashov, Boris Vladimirskiy and others. The Society was active from 1908 to 1915, and held annual spring exhibitions in Vilnius, presenting realistic and modern art, and publishing exhibition catalogs in Russian, Polish, and Lithuanian.<\/p>\n

The Vilnius Art Society invited the city\u2019s residents to evenings called \u201cArtists\u2019 Saturdays\u201d. They combined a concert program with entertainment, mask parties, and dancing. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, cabarets proliferated in European urban culture, where artists, writers, musicians, and actors gathered, and a satirical spirit prevailed, with cartoons and humorous publications being produced. The Vilnius Art Society also had a cabaret, \u201cThe Stray Dog\u201d. The Lithuanian National Museum of Art has preserved an album \u201cArtists\u2019 Saturday No. 2\u201d, created by the members of the Society in 1913. The writer Feodosij Ferenc-Sokolovskij wrote parodies for it, and the artists Moses Leibowski, Ber Zalkind, Herman Torvirt, and Ivan Rybakov drew humorous drawings from the artists\u2019 daily life. In the drawing \u201cArtists\u2019 Saturday No. 2 Editorial Committee\u201d, they portrayed themselves as satyrs \u2013 creatures from Greek mythology, half-human, half-goat, symbolizing fun, vitality, and music.<\/p>\n
