Lillie Art Gallery - Milngavie Domicele Tarabildiene (1912–1985) was a well known interwar artist whose spectrum of creative means and expression was wide - engraving, book illustration and applied graphics, painting, and sculpture. Her poetic and surreal photography, however, has only recently attracted public attention in Europe. This exhibition presents 19 significant photographs from the early 30s, most using the photomontage technique, and all featuring the artist as the model in the scenes. It places Tarabildiene within a context of a European avant-garde, and something of a pioneer. She is Lithuania’s national artist and appears on a Lithuanian postage stamp. Whilst the work of Tarabildiene pre-dates the Soviet era, the work in Borderlands II refers in various ways to a post Soviet condition, and covers a range of approaches. The work by Pletkus (b. 1955) ‘Projects without Prospects’ captures something of the desolation endemic in regional areas across that country. Presented as panoramic black and white panels, these are most closely connected to the Lithuanian school of humanistic photography, but in this instance, a melancholic presence is in evidence. ‘Between the Shores’ by Valiauga (b. 1967) is a poetic journey on ferries to and from Lithuania to various ports across the Baltic Sea. It explores that state of being when in transit - while on the coast, one always turns towards the sea. While at sea, one is constantly thinking about the coast. For the artist, through this work the sea is inseparable from a certain solitude, the synthesis of the symbols of life and death. Samulionytë (b. 1978) has photographed some of the 60 civil registry offices in Lithuania, places that grew in abundance following the break up of the Soviet Union, speculating on the loss of power in the Church, but also on the anodyne and bureaucratic feel of these place, at the same time their mimicking of places of worship or passing... ...Showing at Station Road, Milngavie G66 8BZ February 15 - April 24, 2014 For King & Country Auld Kirk Museum - Kirkintilloch Stories from the Great War. 100 years ago the First World War began.
