The First Ladies of Lithuania and France met with the founders of the MO Museum Danguole and Viktoras Butka, the director of the MO Museum Milda Ivanauskiene and the MO Museum team.

After getting acquainted with MO’s history and collection, B. Macron and D. Nausėdienė visited the exhibition “Why is it so hard to love?”, Which is currently on display at the museum, according to a press release.

“The inclusion of the MO Museum in the tense program of the French president and his wife in Lithuania provided an important opportunity to present contemporary Lithuanian artists, whose works are exhibited in a film exhibition created by foreign artists Saskia Boddeke and Peter Greenaway. The theme of the exhibition speaks of current problems in the modern world, which confirms that we are global players, that we reflect on problems and are open to mutual cooperation ”, says Milda Ivanauskienė, director of the MO Museum.

The curators of the exhibitions “Why is it so difficult to love?” At the MO Museum they analyze situations in which their children’s generations face difficult problems and an uncontrolled flow of information. Every day brings new problems: refugee crisis, ecological cataclysms, political tensions.
Artists Boddeke and Greenaway, whose exhibition was curated by the First Ladies of both countries, are concerned about insensitivity to the migration crisis and inhumanity. Fundamental questions about how people strive to achieve balance in life by choosing between good and evil, the theme of the exhibition, which was discussed during the pandemic, also gained greater relevance.

French President Emanuel Macron and his wife visited Lithuania for the first time.
