The art collection of Lietuvos bankas is little known, let alone seen by the public. The exhibition at the Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania offers a unique opportunity to view a selection from nearly 200 artworks in Lietuvos bankas’ collection, which are being presented to the wider public for the very first time.
The exhibition showcases some of the finest artworks by interwar and contemporary Lithuanian artists, including pieces by Petras Rimša, Antanas Žmuidzinavičius, Justinas Vienožinskis, Augustinas Savickas, Jonas Švažas, Adomas Galdikas, Juozas Mikėnas, Dalia Kasčiūnaitė, and others.
The art collection of Lietuvos bankas was built up and is compiled to this day as one that meets the needs of the institution. There is no intention of transforming the Bank into a museum or public gallery. The building of the collection follows the tradition upheld by many European central banks: the works of art are obtained to decorate the interiors and create an aesthetic environment.
