The two young artist from Kaunas, who arrived in Novi Sad within the Artist in Residence exchange programme of the ‘Novi Sad – European Capital of Culture’ project, found inspiration in the rich architecture from different periods in the history of Novi Sad and Kaunas.
According to Anton, who deals with installations, video art and performing art, the ‘Simple Things from/for Human Beings’ exhibition will contain such objects which are comfortable for the viewer, so to say, suited to a human being since one of the functions of modernism is also to search for new ways of perceiving and reflecting reality.

During five weeks, this yearlong project of culture of togetherness that connects artists, cultural institutions, non-governmental organisations, citizens and visitors through various processes, will present five types of art.
