Lithuanian Modernism is an artistic and cultural movement that emerged in Lithuania during the early 20th century, particularly between the two World Wars. It sought to break away from traditional forms and embrace new ideas in literature, visual arts, and architecture. Influenced by European modernist trends, Lithuanian artists aimed to express national identity and modernity through innovative techniques and styles. Key figures in Lithuanian Modernism include writers like Maironis and Vincas Krėvė, as well as painters such as Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis. The movement played a crucial role in shaping Lithuania's cultural landscape, reflecting the country's aspirations for independence and self-expression.
