Kazimieras Brazdziunas

Kazimieras Brazdžiūnas (b. 1991) is a young-generation painter. In 2018, he graduated from the Vilnius Academy of Arts with an MA in painting. Since 2016, he has been taking part in group exhibitions, and held several solo exhibitions. His work has been presented at the international contemporary art fair ArtVilnius and various other projects of contemporary art. In 2018, he launched a platform for young painters Kontr-argumentas. He curates contemporary painting exhibitions, and publishes articles of art criticism in the cultural press. 

In Brazdžiūnas's paintings, shapes of physical and virtual reality are in coexistence and confrontation. In the painter's work, appropriated mediated images (of artworks, computer games, motifs of films, TV, popular culture etc.) coagulate into unexpected compilations and alogical sequences, reflecting the visuality of contemporary culture, conveying the thick daily flow of screen images, and commenting on the urgent aspects of the totality of images and representations.
