On March 19 at 6:00 PM, the opening of Algimantas Aleksandravičius’s photography exhibition “In the Years of an Angry God. Apocalypse” will take place at the “Laiptai” gallery of the Šiauliai Cultural Center.

The artist himself, Algimantas Aleksandravičius, will be present. The exhibition will be introduced by art theorist, critic, and photographer Virginijus Kinčinaitis.

Algimantas Aleksandravičius is one of Lithuania’s most prominent and recognizable photographers, particularly significant in the field of portrait photography. Born in 1960 in Klaipėda, he has been actively engaged in Lithuanian and international cultural life for over three decades. He has held more than 100 solo exhibitions, published numerous photography albums, and his works are held in museums and private collections.

The focus of Aleksandravičius’s work is the human being. He is known for psychologically deep portraits that aim not only to capture visual likeness but also to reveal inner states, character, and life experience. His portraits often create a dialogue—between photographer and subject, between image and viewer.

Beyond portraiture, he has created conceptual and socially engaged photographic series exploring society’s margins, historical turning points, identity, and memory. Among his notable projects are cycles analyzing human states, social roles, and historical and cultural experiences.

Algimantas Aleksandravičius is a laureate of the Lithuanian National Culture and Arts Prize, and his work is considered an important part of contemporary Lithuanian photography. His portraits serve as significant visual records of cultural and artistic figures.

The exhibition will be on view until April 11, 2026.

Event duration: ~1 hour.
