Agn\u0117 says that being in Brussels was an inspiring experience and an opportunity to see how Lithuanian art and culture resonates in an international context:<\/p>\n\n

\n

“It was extremely interesting to see how foreign guests react to the world of \u010ciurlionis and our virtual journey through his work. It is not only a form of art, but also a form of dialogue between countries and cultures. I return to Lithuania with an even stronger belief in the potential of our artist and the power of communion,” <\/strong> – shared Agn\u0117.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

The exhibition was also attended by Virginija Vitkien\u0117, Director of the National M.
