ALEKSANDRAS MACIJAUSKAS has entered the Lithuanian photography together with a group of neoromanticists of the‘sixties, which directed its artistic efforts towards creating a generalized and typified image of a representative of their nation. However, the photographer has soon stepped over the framework of the general conception as it was too idealizing and therefore limited. Thoughtful elderly laces, the poetical sadness of reconciliation and farewell, romantic pictures of the old village and equally idealized townscapes made a repertoire too narrow for A. Macijauskas’ impetuous temper and his rapid intellectual insight. Having decidedly taken his own individual road, he greatly extended the traditional sphere of poetical interpretation. Every household article, beautiful or not, every animal, machine, the peasant, immersed in his rough but healthy life – not in meditation – all that has become the object of concern for his expression.
Thus the “Countryside Market” series, his largest work, born in 1969–1984, stuns a person by its materiality, concreteness, realism and the illusion of chaos.
However, certain recurring structural principles of the image say that documenting national life was not the only intention of the photographer.
The compositional structure, invented by A. Macijauskas at the boundary between the ‘fifties and ‘sixties, when the wide-angler was subject to a wholesale experiment, was unparalleled in its meaningful manner. The wide-angle deformation and the low foreshortening in his“Countryside Markets’”form a peculiar distance from the situation pictured and provoke not only its psychological or sociological, but also a metaphysical apprehension. The enigma of A. Macijauskas’ composition lies also in the possibility it opens for the regrouping of the human, material and animal worlds, extracting the latter from the shade of man’s significance. The curved space in the “Veterinary Clinic” (1977–86) series effectively expresses the atmosphere of sickness and tear. These works reveal the dramatic gift of A. Macijauskas to control the balance between the cruel epics of the situation and the positive image of man.
Vigorous radiating of life in every direction from the locus point; the swarm of things, relations and meanings – this universe of regularity and chance, joy and pain – never possess a destructive spirit in A. Macijauskas’ photographs. This is what holds him strictly within the limits of his generation’s optimistic attitude towards the world. Even his series ”Dying Trees” (1983–85), instead of influencing us by the sadness of the faces of Death, is an attempt to disclose the innate quality of any living substance to display a stubborn resistance to destruction. The apparently animalistic awareness of the Nature’s vital power in the“Markets” series develops into an exposition of the vital powers of the society and the individual, which express themselves either coarsely or finely. It is so also in those infrequent cases when the author shoves the image almost to the verge of the absurd in order to make us understand the value of those things better.
The ability to “concentrate” the matter expressively in the foreground and transcend the image at the same time is one of the most wonderful features of A. Macijauskas’ style and the main prerequisite for his works being so versatile and metaphorical. The confusion of anxiety and holiday, as well as the simple melody of the accordion or the trumpet, is pervaded by phrases of a Sunday symphony, striking the ear from a distance unknown, from beyond the horizon — the low angle projects the commotion of the foreground against the background of serene skies – and, as the result, an empirical, ethnographical picture turns into a stage of life, a mystery. This is what allows the English photography critic Jan Jeffrey to treat the live saleswomen from the Kedainiai or Prienai market as“a presidium established by Fates to look into who knows what weakness of the flesh is”, or to say that “Macijauskas’ marketers also look as though they might have originated in stories or in myths”. The same stylistic property drives the Russian critic V. Dyomin to make a surprised remark that“those reportage photographs are filled with symbolic energy”.                Laima Skeivienė. “Literature and Art”, newspaper, Vilnius, 1988

“For Aleksandras Macijauskas photography is not a mirror but a magnifying glass.”  Dr. Anri Vartanov. Moscow. “Nemunas” magazine, Kaunas, 1970

“Aleksandras Macijauskas freely uses the most up-to-date means to express the traditional concepts.” Arthur Goldsmith. “Popular Photography.” USA, 1972

“The real avant-gardism is born not in the West – it comes from the East and is only “the mewing” compared to that strength, unconventionality, and courage, when Macijauskas in rubber boots covered with dung enters the market square and leaves it carrying a basket full of photos.”            Jean Claude Lemagny.  Arles Photography Festival in 1975

“Maybe there were only two Lithuanians-rebels – Aleksandras Macijauskas and Vitas Luckus – who constantly questioned the usual interpretation of photography. Later the young photographers also rose in rebellion, however, Aleksandras Macijauskas and Vitas Luckus were restless by nature.” Photography and cinema critic Skirmantas Valiulis. “7 Days of Art”, Vilnius, 1977

“Humanism in dung and blood”.  Victor Diomin. Moscow. From the lecture in Nida seminar about Aleksandras Macijauskas’ “Veterinary Clinics” series, 1978

“In Lithuanian photography Aleksandras Macijauskas usually gives us a shock.” Writer Lev Aninski. “Articles on Lithuanian photography”, Moscow, 1984

“In Aleksandras Macijauskas’ works antibeauty becomes that what sets a riddle of existence and makes us become thoughtful about life and death.” Algirdas Gaižutis. “Literatūra and menas”, newspaper, Vilnius, 1993

“Aleksandras Macijauskas as Kristijonas Donelaitis felt the authentic pulse of his nation in a place where the others did not think of feeling it.” Algimantas Kezys. Aleksandras Macijauskas’ “My Lithuania”. “Draugas” newspaper, Chicago, 1995

“I do not know any other artist in Lithuanian photography who lays bare the phenomena of life like that. Even those who take photos of naked men and women do not succeed in laying bare the body and spirit in such a way as Aleksandras Macijauskas who takes photos of dressed veterinary surgeons or market people.” Poet Alis Balbierius. “Literatūra and menas”, newspaper, Vilnius, 1997

“Aleksandras Macijauskas creates his photos from small parts of everyday reality. Interactions in his photos become portrait symbols that freely and easily speak about life. Such means of expression is deeply-rooted in the history of art beginning with “Gernica” by Picasso and ending with details from Goya’s life.” Steve Yates. Museum of New Mexico, 2001

“The power of Aleksandras Macijauskas’photos is in his skill to strengthen our recognition through the most usual emotions. They cause great anxiety that rouses our hidden fear.” Curator of exhibition Van Dere Coke. Museum of New Mexico, 2001

“Aleksandras Macijauskas who already in 1964 started to take photos is one of our most controversal creators, the embodiment of “destabilizing” temperament able to focus on real and virtual reality and to embrace everything – beginning with reportage and ending with grotesque.” Photoartist, historian Stanislovas Žvirgždas. “Month of photography” Bratislava, Slovakia, 2005

Objective sight according to Macijauskas is not the easy catching of the surface, not the passive stopping of a real moment but the intuitive catching of the beginning of an action and the transformation of the future into the present time.  Margarita Matulytė. For and Against “The Last Book”. [re:] fotografija,No 2 (15), Vilnius, 20
