Dark Times: Art and Artists of Vilnius in 1939–1941
326 Dark Times: Art and Artists of Vilnius in 1939–1941 Giedrė Jankevičiūtė Vilnius Academy of Arts Maironio St. 6, LT-01124 Vilnius e-mail: [email protected] The aim of this paper is to discuss and reconstruct in general fe- atures the reality of the Vilnius artistic community from late autumn 1939 to June 1941. This period of less than two years significantly changed the configuration of the artistic community of the city, the system of institutions shaping the art scene as well as the artistic goals. It also brought forth new names and inspired new images. These changes were above all determined by political circumstances: the war that broke out in Poland on 1 September 1939; the ceding of Vilnius and the Vilnius region to Lithuania; two Soviet occupations: in the autumn of 1939 and June 1940, and the subsequent Nazi occupation a year later. The influence of politics on the art scene and the life of artists has been explored in institutional and other aspects by both Lithuanian and Polish art historians, but the big picture is not yet complete, and the general narrative is still under construction. A further aim of this paper is to highlight some elements that have not received sufficient atten- tion in historiography and that are necessary for the reconstruction of the whole. Some facts of cooperation or its absence among artists of various ethnicities are presented, and the question is raised on the extent to which these different groups were affected by Sovietisation, and what impact this fragmentation had on the city’s art scene.

The Development of Creative Industries: the Case of Lithuanian Fashion Design Companies
ISSN 2029–2236 (print) ISSN 2029–2244 (online) SOCIALINIŲ MOKSLŲ STUDIJOS SOCIETAL STUDIES 2014, 6(1), p. 34–66. THE DEVELOPMENT OF CREATIVE INDUSTRIES: THE CASE OF LITHUANIAN FASHION DESIGN COMPANIES Mindaugas Laužikas International Business School at Vilnius University Saulėtekio av. 22, LT-10225 Vilnius, Lithuania E-mail: [email protected] Rasa Mokšeckienė International Business School at Vilnius University Saulėtekio av. 22, LT-10225 Vilnius, Lithuania E-mail: [email protected] Pateikta 2013 m. liepos 25 d.; parengta spausdinti 2014 m. gegužės 25 d. doi:10.13165/SMS-14-6-1-03 Abstract. The analysis of creative industries and, in particular, the specificity of managing creative companies require not only understanding of concepts, such as the creativity, arts and business, but also understanding of creative industries in a broader sense, which varies from one country to another; thus, to get a comprehensive image of creative industries, various classifications, activities and further development possibilities should be examined. There should be the international trade in creative goods and services and its added-value scrutinized. A proportionally large part of this publication is oriented to the analysis of data regarding the demand for arts in global markets and the international trade, as well as the evaluation of contributions of arts to economy, its profitability, regional growth trends, employment and increasing competition among local companies. The research question of the present article is as follows: are development and management of companies that belong to creative industries efficient, and what Socialinių mokslų studijos / Societal Studies ISSN 2029–2236 (print), ISSN 2029–2244 (online) Mykolo Romerio universitetas, 2014 http://www.mruni.eu/lt/mokslo_darbai/SMS/ Mykolas Romeris University, 2014 http://www.mruni.eu/en/mokslo_darbai/SMS/ Societal Studies.

To Research Or Not to Research? (Vilnius, 14-17 Oct 21)
To Research or Not To Research? (Vilnius, 14-17 Oct 21) Vilnius Academy of Arts, Vilnius, Lithuania, Oct 14–17, 2021 Deadline: Jun 20, 2021 www.vda.lt/en/doctoral-studies/congress-2021 Vytautas Michelkevicius X-disciplinary Congress: To Research or Not To Research in the Post-disciplinary Academy? Artists and researchers of any kind are welcome to apply with contributions that discuss urgent matters on the question of artistic research, the nature of its relationship with academia, and to artistic practice, the culture sector, and the art worlds. You can choose yourself what to insert instead of “X” in the x-disciplinary: non-, trans-, post-, un-, inter-, etc. As a springboard for this conference, we follow the proposal by Charles Esche in ‘Include Me Out: Helping Artists to Undo the Art World’ where he writes of ‘certain educational fundamentals’ including ‘anti-specialization, anti-isolation/anti-autonomy, and anti-hierarchy’[1]. In light of this, we wish to ask: - Is artistic research like and aligned to the contemporary academy, and if so, how? - Is artistic research a post-disciplinary, un-disciplinary, meta-disciplinary and/or indisciplinary field of inquiry that because of this has the capacity to transform the institution? - How does and should artistic research collaborate with fields (and research paradigms) outside of academia, and on what terms? This first regional congress on artistic research marks the 10th Anniversary of the Doctoral Pro- grammes in Arts in Lithuania (Vilnius Academy of Arts and Lithuanian Academy of Music and The- atre). Ten years is a good point in a field or phenomenon’s maturation: it is getting closer to adoles- cence, has considerable learning to draw from, and the experience that enables it to imagine pos- sible scenarios for the future.

Yet ‘forgotten’ or ‘blocked’ memories do not disappear; they settle in the collective unconscious and influence the society’s life from there. The international conference(Un)blocked Memory: Writing Art History in Baltic Countries will focus on research into the arts in three Baltic countries: Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia and will offer to look at them through the lens of the problem of memory.

In order to meet society’s needs, education and research have to be developed. After the independence was gained in 1991, higher education in Lithuania was reformed in 2000 and 2009. The latest reform intended to change higher education funding system, management of higher schools and attitude towards the improvement of study quality. As the activities of higher schools depend on the State subsidies and number of students, i.e. funding, it is very important to reach good admission results. This article deals with the main principles of higher education reform in Lithuania and how the situation has changed in the field of admission to Lithuanian higher schools, including Vilnius Gediminas Technical University. ©© 20132012 The Published Authors. by Published Elsevier by Ltd.
