Vytautas Tomasevicius

Vytautas Tomaševičius (born 1972) is a Lithuanian painter, he has lived and worked in Vilnius since the late 1990s.

In 1998 he graduated from the Vilnius Academy of Arts, majoring in painting and theater scenography. For several years, he has been directing film design and painting.

Vytautas creates his story by opposing small to large, brilliant to blur, colored to black and white, calm to expressive. “A dozen colorful exotic birds in the landscapes of an industrial town, graffiti-stained yaks in front of the mountains remind us of a changing world that we don't notice when we drown in our daily routine," says the artist.

In 2008 Tomaševičius received the first prize at the Baltic Art Biennale in St. Petersburg.

In 2019, he won an award of excellence at the third Art Olympia Biennale in Tokyo, with his work "A Still Life with Two Objects" (2016). Tomaševičius is the first Lithuanian artist to receive this distinction.
