There are not so many photographers in Lithuania, who would dedicate themselves to one topic in their creative life. Among all stands out here Jonas Kalvelis, who all his life praised nature and dunes of Neringa. He deserved to be called a poet of nature fragments, master of Lithuanian landscape views. J.Kalvelis all his life photographed just his beloved trees and amber sands of our seaside. He understood it and was listening to it.

Deconstructed photographs by Darius Vaičekauskas could be discussed in few aspects which are actual in a field of today visual culture.
First. Author refuses the act of photographing and this way he questions his own function as photo-artist. But working with photographic image he doesn‘t let us take the unambiguous solution. In spite of that we know, that reconstructed Richard Prince American archetypes are in the third place as the most expensive sold photographs.

The works in this series abandon the parameters of space and time that facilitate orientation, and seek to address the oversaturated market of reproduced images.
A photograph devoid of an event and message disorients the viewer and does away with the experience of vision as fast cognition. Images captured in nature sites and public or private spaces do not convey those locations' precise parameters, but rather comprise a continuous visual structure, the principal objective of which is to emphasize the line between the visible and the invisible, the familiar and the foreign, the natural and the social, instead of reproducing the present situation. If one understands silence as a protest against predictable twaddle, one can say that excess visual references are eliminated in these photographs.
On the other hand, the photographs' ascetic visual quality acts as a reference to and a re-reading of the history of minimalist art.
