In Kintai, contemporary artist and curator Vytenis Burokas is currently presenting his work. His exhibition has been extended until August 31 and can be seen in the second\u2011floor spaces of the Kintai Arts residency.  <br\/><br\/>On June 27, Friday, at 5 PM, the residency gallery will open a joint exhibition by Darius Jaru\u0161evi\u010dius and Ina \u0160ilina, creating under the fictional persona Polyrabbit.Duplicate, titled \u201cFIND THE DIFFERENCES\u201d. We warmly invite you to the opening\u2014and don\u2019t miss the chance to go up to the second floor to see Vytenis Burokas\u2019s exhibition \u201cPorpourri\u201d! We look forward to seeing you at Kintai Arts, Kur\u0161i\u0173 g. 30, Kintai.   <br\/><br\/>The creators of Polyrabbit.Duplicate, Darius Jaru\u0161evi\u010dius and Ina \u0160ilina, pass the authorship of film and painting to an animated character, crafting documentary stories through diverse painting formats. Polyrabbit.Duplicate is the hero of the mockumentary animated series \u201cPolyrabbit.Duplicate,\u201d embodying the modern media consumer who never encounters physically tangible threats from news streams, experiencing and perceiving the outside world through screens. Created over a decade ago, the anachronistic\u2011in\u2011form character has become an analog, virtually generated agent by Jaru\u0161evi\u010dius and \u0160ilina. In Polyrabbit.Duplicate\u2019s painting practice, the relationship between painting and irony\u2014described as creepy figuration\u2014is crucial. Polyrabbit.Duplicate analogously appropriates imagery from animated films, visualises cultural memes, social realities, and ostensibly transforms personal experiences into comic narratives.    <br\/><br\/>In this exhibition, Polyrabbit.Duplicate contributes to the vision of restoring the Baltic Curonian identity of the Klaip\u0117da region. Returning Curonians engage in archaic cottage industries within the contemporary Klaip\u0117da landscape, just as the resurgent Auk\u0161taitian tribe restores the pre\u2011atomic identity of Visaginas city. On the other hand, these painted works cannot be called illustrations for comics, animated films, or advertisements. Polyrabbit.Duplicate isolates a fairly emblematic illustrative image mediated by painting, unfolding it in a series of prints (karto\u010diai). The projection of an animated image onto carpet becomes a non\u2011replicable model intended to be repainted by copying on a very dense, hard\u2011to\u2011paint material\u2014the carpet. From this, the ironic Polyrabbit.Duplicate gaze on difference and repetition arises. \u201cDifference and Repetition\u201d is a work of philosopher Gilles Deleuze, proposing the fundamental dissimilarity of prints. \u201cFind the Differences\u201d is a witty paraphrase of the perception of difference and repetition.      <br\/><br\/>Darius Jaru\u0161evi\u010dius and Ina \u0160ilina are indie animated film creators, actively participating in international film festivals. In 2010 the duo was awarded the Silver Crane. Darius Jaru\u0161evi\u010dius curates independent site\u2011specific contemporary painting exhibitions, participates in group shows as a painter experimenting with dense painting matter and exploring its non\u2011representational dimension. Ina \u0160ilina is a journalist, screenwriter, text author, and educator. Having collaborated for many years with the independent media platform \u201cNara,\u201d \u0160ilina creates podcasts for LRT on political, historical, and anthropological topics.    <br\/><br\/>Exhibition visits at Kintai Arts gallery: Tue\u2013Fri, 10\u202fAM\u20136\u202fPM (outside working hours on request by phone +370 612 38 585), Kur\u0161i\u0173 g. 30, Kintai.   <br\/><br\/>Kintai Arts is supported by the Lithuanian Council for Culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A cycle of contemporary art exhibitions continues at the Kintai Arts art residency located in the Curonian Spit region.
