The Contemporary Art Centre will open Lina Lapelytė’s major solo exhibition ‘Gatherings’ on 9 October 2026. It will bring together works from across Lapelytė’s career, from her earliest pieces to new works presented here for the first time.

The exhibition opens during a significant year for the artist, with her work currently on view at Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin and Tate Modern in London, two of Europe’s leading contemporary art institutions.

The opening night of the exhibition will feature Lapelytė’s new performance Mud Works, produced in collaboration with Triennale Milano Teatro.

More information is coming soon.
