Giedre Mickunaite focuses on temporal dimensions of pictorial and verbal imagery. She explores structures of cultural legacy and regards oblivion as a vehicle in production of late medieval and early modern culture. Since 2003, Mickunaite teaches and carries art historical research at the Vilnius Academy of Arts in Lithuania.

"Mickunaite’s valuable book highlights the issue of maniera Greca and its understanding in a historical context, indicating the potential links of their creators with the Morava school, and emphasising the role of Gregory Camblak." -Miroslaw Piotr Kruk, The Byzantine Review, vol. 6, 2024 ''The book is an extended attempt to provide a new framework for understanding the presence and evolving meaning of these Greek images. At the same time, in a microhistorical way, the pieces of art under examination serve as a gateway to narrate broader processes: confessional disputes, ideologies of power, changing artistic tastes, or, finally, cultural transfers that were established beyond the stereotypical East-West or centerperipheries divisions.''- Jan Blonski , 21: Inquiries into Art, History, and the Visual , July, 2024 ''As mentioned by Mick.nait., “this study is a kind of rescue expedition, which aspires to save fragmented as well as semantically mixed images from neglect” (p. 17). [...] It is praiseworthy that she draws attention to the overlooked, and yet very important, material presented in the book. [...] so hopefully, the publication will reach a broad audience and place those “small” pieces into a “big” narrative.''- Dorota Zaprzalska, 21: Inquiries into Art, History, and the Visual , Vol.2, 2024
