20th Century Lithuanian Film Posters: more than just aesthetic representation
A selection of images from Declassified, an exhibition that showcased the finest of Lithuanian film and displayed cinema posters never before seen in the UK. This celebration of Lithuania's cultural heritage encompasses film, art and live performance, exhibited in east London art cinema Rich Mix in April. The exhibition included a collection of 69 original Lithuanian film posters covering four decades of the 20th century from the personal archives of photographer Marta Ovod. More than just aesthetic representations of Lithuanian cinema, they are tools for cracking open the story of Soviet and independent Lithuania, providing insight into the ideological and socio-political shifts that occurred during this period.
