Around 6000 buildings: this is the number of modernist objects in Kaunas city and its district surviving to this day. From luxurious concrete villas, temples and public buildings, schools and cultural institutions, to small wooden houses. These buildings are not only places worth visiting, in which we currently live, work, dine, send and receive parcels, study, learn, receive treatment and create our own everyday life. Each and every one of them is interesting\u00a0in their unique stories, discoveries, ability to be open for creative and community-based initiatives. Each of them is an opportunity. That remains unused most of the time.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=”100″ position_vertical=”middle” gutter_size=”3″ back_color=”color-xsdn” overlay_alpha=”50″ border_color=”color-nhtu” border_style=”solid” shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1544103051828{border-width: 1px !important;}”][vc_gallery el_id=”gallery-135037″ medias=”101867″ gutter_size=”3″ media_items=”media|lightbox|original” screen_lg=”1000″ screen_md=”600″ screen_sm=”480″ single_overlay_opacity=”1″ single_image_coloration=”desaturated” single_padding=”2″ uncode_shortcode_id=”121725″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_custom_heading]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”Film on Modernism” tab_id=”1548082824545-3-2″][vc_column_text]One of the projects of Kaunas 2022 is the\u00a0creation of a documentary \/ art film, the aim of which is to discuss different variations of tourism on the global level. There are hundreds of places around the world, where modernism has had an important role shaping the local identity, like Lviv, Harbin, or Asmara. Despite political or cultural differences, all of them have been united by the same global idea, and today it is our heritage.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”City Crown: Modernism-inspired festival of lights” tab_id=”1548082842819-4-10″][vc_column_text]It is the major opening event of 2022. It will connect the modernism heritage, its ideas and urban spaces\u00a0of the city. The symbol of modernist Kaunas, Resurrection Church, is one of the most inspiring examples of the idea of Die Stadkrone (The City Crown) by a German expressionist Bruno Taut. When constructing this church, it was decided to illuminate it with powerful lights. This idea was never implemented. During the interwar period, the construction of the church started and was not completed, and during the Soviet times, it was turned into a radio factory. During the Festival of Lights, by employing various conceptual solutions, this and other city buildings will light up in new colours.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][\/vc_accordion][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=”14″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=”80″ position_horizontal=”left” position_vertical=”middle” gutter_size=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/2″ el_class=”atminties-contacts”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
