Artwork in the room
Born in 1961, Vidmantas Jažauskas is a Lithuanian artist who graduated from the Vilnius Academy of Arts. Throughout his artistic career, he has shown unwavering dedication to the fundamental principles of painting, which he continually examines and hones within his practice. Despite his talent and achievements, Jažauskas intentionally avoids public attention, shunning exhibitions and refraining from self-promotion. This preference for solitude provides him with the space to concentrate on the inner warmth and emotional layers that characterize his art.
Vidmantas Jažauskas’s paintings are noted for their classical sensibility, yet they are anything but conventional. He sees ongoing promise in the traditional approach to painting and reveals this through his distinctive manipulation of color and form. Instead of fixating on minute details, Jažauskas prioritizes the overall impression of a scene, presenting it as though observed from afar with a gentle gaze. This vantage point allows viewers to perceive his works as unified wholes that radiate emotion and ambiance.
For inspiration, the artist primarily turns to Lithuanian landscapes and urban vistas. Scenes from nature and city life recur throughout his oeuvre, as Jažauskas is drawn to portray the shifting seasons and the unique spirit of local places. In the summer, he joins plein-air painting sessions, immersing himself in the outdoors to capture nature’s brief beauty directly on canvas. Oppositely, winter finds him in the city, where the streets of Kaunas and Vilnius frequently provide subject matter for his paintings.
Of all the locations he portrays, Vidmantas Jažauskas feels a particular fondness for Užupis, a romantic neighborhood in Vilnius celebrated for its creative community and bohemian mood. This affection is apparent in numerous cityscapes, where the distinctive aura and vibrancy of Užupis emerge through his skillful use of vivid colors, contrasted shades, and dynamic compositions. By means of his artwork, Jažauskas affirms that classical traditions still offer resonance and expressive richness for audiences today.

About this artwork+
The painting exhibits a vibrant and lively scene set in City Hall Square in Kaunas. Dominating the composition is a large, lush tree with dense, green foliage, under which shadows and light play across the ground. This tree stands as a striking contrast to the clear, blue sky scattered with clouds above. Below, a vast square stretches out, dappled with sunlight and shade. A lone figure walks through the square, adding a human element to the otherwise tranquil landscape. To the right, historic buildings painted in warm yellow tones line the edge of the square. These structures, with their red roofs and arching doorways, evoke a sense of timeless beauty and architectural heritage. The play of light and vivid colors on these buildings suggests warmth and vitality, emphasizing the serene yet lively atmosphere of the square. The painter's use of bright, expressive hues and bold brushstrokes imbues the scene with a sense of vibrancy and movement, capturing the essence of a sunny day in this historical city center.
