<strong>YPP</strong> PATRONS<br />
We began sponsoring the Young Painter Prize as soon as the Lewben Art<br />
Foundation was established six years ago. Back then, we already realised that the<br />
<strong>YPP</strong> will not only act as an important stepping stone for young and freshly<br />
graduated artists who find themselves at the beginning of their careers, but will<br />
also facilitate their integration into the art market.<br />
Getting noticed by art collectors, gallerists and curators — these are only a few<br />
ways that the <strong>YPP</strong> benefits young artists. Quite a few of the awardees are already<br />
among the most successful painters in the country.<br />
The <strong>YPP</strong> has been very beneficial to the Lewben Art Foundation as well —<br />
we discovered brilliant painters such as Andrius Zakarauskas, Adomas<br />
Danusevičius, Linas Jusionis, Jonas Jurcikas, Kristina Ališauskaitė, Auksė<br />
Miliukaitė and Vita Opolskytė. The Foundation is now proud to have included<br />
their works in its collection.<br />
The Foundation congratulates the <strong>YPP</strong> organisers with this impressive<br />
anniversary and wishes further successes in their tireless nourishment of<br />
young art.<br />
