The museum, opened on 27 June 2013, is devoted to the Paris School painter Vytautas Kasiulis (1918–1995), born in Simnas. Today his works grace the museums of modern art in Paris and New York, as well as art galleries in France, the USA, Canada, Great Britain, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, Germany, Argentina, Australia and other countries. In 1960 the artist acquired his first art gallery of his own, where he also exhibited works by famous representatives of the Paris School. He later exchanged it for the larger and more prestigious Galerie Royale in the centre of Paris. Over the years the artist's places of residence, his position in society and his style changed. That is why the museum bearing his name presents every period of the artist's creative search. This gives you the chance to get to know the world of a unique artist – one that will charm both professionals and those who have never held a brush.
