MSTISLAW DOBUZHINSKII’S WORK AT THE STATE THEATRE [KAUNAS, LITHUANIA] By Živilė Ambrasaitė Stage designer Mstislaw Dobuzhinskii is best known as Russian artist in Western countries. But not less important part of his works (almost 40 stage settings for opera, ballet, drama plays) were done in 1925, 1929-1939 years in Lithuania – a country that Dobuzhinskii’s roots come from. Alas, the Dobuzhinskii’s Lithuanian period activity and artistic achievements are not well known abroad. Yet studies of his works in The State Theatre in Kaunas (temporary capital of Lithuania) wish to hope the comprehensiveness even in Lithuania. The author of this study discusses the main Dobuzhinskii’s works for The State Theatre in different contexts, reviews and artist’s influence on theatre scenography perception. Dobuzhinskii established main aesthetic ideas of World of Art society – revival of cultural traditions, neo-romantic stylization and retrospectivism. His art of stage decoration encouraged young Lithuanian artists to come out with their own ideas of all main components of a play uniting.
