Mindaugas Gapševičius, artist, investigates the dynamic relationships between humans and their environments. He earned an MA from the Vilnius Academy of Arts in 1999, an MPhil from Goldsmiths University of London in 2016, and completed his PhD at Bauhaus University Weimar in 2022. Since 2015, he has been affiliated with Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, first as an artistic associate and, since 2022, as a research fellow.
In 1998, Gapševičius co-founded Institutio Media, one of Lithuania’s first platforms dedicated to media art. Between 2008 and 2017, he co-founded and co-organised Migrating Art Academies, a pan-European network supporting emerging artists. In 2016, together with colleagues from the TOP association, he established Berlin’s first community biolab. In 2019, he founded Alt Lab, an interdisciplinary research space in Vilnius. Most recently, in 2024, he established the Centre for Non-machines Research in Athens, continuing his exploration of experimental practices at the intersection of art, science, and technology.
Gapševičius’s works have graced prestigious platforms worldwide, including Radvila Palace Art Museum (2026), the Ars Electronica festival in Linz (2019-2025), the Lithuanian National Gallery of Art (2019, 2021), MO Museum in Vilnius (2019), Piksel festival in Bergen (2018, 2021), Ostrale Festival in Dresden (2021), and Futureless Festival in Stockholm (2022).
Gapševičius has been the recipient of artist grants from the Lithuanian state in 2014, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2023.
