  • Residency period: Winter 2025
  • Vilnius Academy of Arts Residency

Dainius Liškevičius is a Vilnius-based artist and has been a member of the Lithuanian Interdisciplinary Artists’s Association since 1998.

A leading figure in Lithuania’s post-independence art scene, Liškevičius has played a key role in revitalising artistic expression. His practice spans installation, photography, performance and other media, continually pushing the boundaries between disciplines to explore new forms in contemporary art. 

His work is distinguished by social engagement, contextuality, irony and social critique. Reacting to the topography of a specific place, he examines human behaviour and experience, identity and cultural values, collisions of public and private spaces and collective and personal memory. In 2015, Liškevičius represented Lithuania at the 56th Venice Biennale, presenting the project Museum – a fictional museum based on true and autobiographical facts.
