Agnė Gintalaitė. WITHOUT PERSPECTIVE

In the first series, photographer Agnė Gintalaitė documented a series of some 200 Lithuanian garage doors painted and weathered by the elements and time on the outskirts of Vilnius that look like Mark Rothko paintings left out in the rain, each its own stunning work of abstract art. Her impulse to document the doors was both to capture their ephemeral aesthetic as well as a nod to the garages’ owners, who she described as most likely elderly and of modest means, relics of a bygone era standing their ground “in an urban landscape on which big businesses increasingly make claim.”
