Established in 1921, the M. K. Čiurlionis National Museum of Art has turned into one of the oldest and largest art museums in Lithuania. M. K. Čiurlionis (1875–1911) is the most famous Lithuanian painter, composer, author, and public figure. National Museum of Art is the only place in the world where almost all the creative heritage of this most famous Lithuanian artist is preserved. Some critics attribute Čiurlionis to an abstract art and compare his oeuvre with that of V. Kandinsky, A. Böcklin, O. Redon, M. Klinger and E. Munch. His musical heritage stands as a backbone for the Lithuanian professional music. There are symphony poems, compositions for piano, choirs, organ and string quartets. Visitors are invited to listen to M. K. Čiurlionis’ compositions in the music auditorium.
