Vilnius Poker exhibition

Experience Vilnius through the prism of Ričardas Gavelis’ iconic novel, Vilnius Poker. This book, penned during the collapse of the Soviet system and inspired by the thoughts of a free man, is one of the first Lithuanian novels to examine the city and its dwellers. Now, director Oskaras Koršunovas and scenographer Gintaras Makarevičius will invite MO Museum visitors to explore both a familiar and undiscovered Vilnius by wandering around a city-labyrinth constructed by text, images and sound.

Works of visual art reflecting one of the most famous Lithuanian novels will ask us what kind of character Vilnius is today and how we envision it to be in the future. However, the exhibition makes no promises of offering one correct answer, because it doesn’t exist. Your version is part of the Vilnius puzzle.
