Gyva grafika

<div>Kauno gatvės meno ekspoziciją po atviru dangumi papildė dar vienas „Gyvos grafikos“ darbas – į prekybos ir laisvalaikio centrą „Mega“ vedančiame požeminiame tunelyje atsirado piešinys jūros gelmių motyvais. Jį kuriant sutelktos trijų menininkų – Žygimanto Amelyno, Tado Šimkaus ir Armino Raugevičiaus – pajėgos: Žygimantas kūrė piešinio eskizą, apgalvojo jo perkėlimo ant tunelio paviršiaus eigą, o Tadas ir Arminas atliko piešimo darbus.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div>

Untitled

Morfai

<div>The mural at the Kaunas main Railway Station depicts a man rushing to a train in the romantic atmosphere of falling autumn leaves.<br><br></div>

The Last Passenger

Robot muralist

<div>The mural created to commemorate the artist Lidija Meškaitytė (1926-1993) and her contribution to Lithuanian fine arts. The mural "Sunset"(1973) is one of the best watercolour miniatures of the artist. The landscape picture of calm Lithuanian countryside one can see on the wall now meets the traveller and makes him or her stop at this place for a moment. Interesting fact - this is the largest mural in Baltic countries made by a robot.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>&nbsp;<br><br></div>

At sunset

Vytenis Jakas

<div>If you drive through the Vilijampole neighbourhood&nbsp;in Kaunas, it’s impossible not to notice the brightly-coloured house reflecting&nbsp;the sunlight and car&nbsp;headlights. Street art project "Burning Stones" at the former ghetto gate&nbsp;was made in 2018. In this place, Jewish&nbsp;ghetto operated from 1941 to 1944. Interesting fact - Vytenis Jakas made this mural&nbsp;not alone but with the help of his daughter and friends.&nbsp;</div>

Burning stones

Wesley van Heughten Dazetwo

<div>Crows and ravens may look similar and are both highly intelligent birds, very much communal creatures like people. The mural has several important allusions to the European culture like the poem ‘The Raven’ of Edgar Allan Poe and one of the most beautiful Lithuanian fairy tale ‘Twelve Brethren Flying Black Ravens’.<br><br></div>

Communication is Sacre

Ramūnas Vaicekauskas

<div>Life is an abyss. Simply - just go. If you have faith and trust, you will achieve your goal. The words in Lithuanian have two meanings: "TIK ėjimas” (Just going) and "Tikėjimas” (Faith).<br><br></div>

Justwalking

<div>The mural, created in 2019, represents a story of an old man about the village in the neighbourhood of the first Soviet modern district <em>Kalniečiai </em>in Kaunas. He remembers how people of the modern apartment buildings could buy fresh milk from the farmers. The tractor driver living in the neighbourhood brought the stones from the fields by his tractor to make a small park near the apartment houses beautiful.<br><br></div>

Village

Magda Karol

<div>We see the beautiful ripped strawberry presented to the viewer. The symbol of strawberry has a rich history from the Christian Medieval symbolism to our days. One is related to innocence and the other to eroticism. We remember the fairy tale of Brothers Grimm about the pure girl, when one day during winter, the stepmother makes her go out to find strawberries deep in the woods.&nbsp;</div>

Caring is Sharing

<div>3 stylized cars on the garage door - an old artistic idea cherished by Vytenis Jakas. In 2019, he received approval and endorsement from the Seinai Street Community in Kaunas, creating this artwork for the joy of all people living in this yard.<br><br></div>

Cars

<div>The colour of the sky is the right one that gives people peace of mind. Mirrors create an ever-changing artistic image: they reflect the sky, the mutable light and its reflections, the seasons, colours, other buildings in the yard, and ourselves looking at the Blue House. It is an abstract interactive peace of art with the installation of the bed – a place to lie down and watch the sky, the stars and the calm of the night.<br><br></div>

Blue House

Ieva Olimpija

<div>The turtle is a water element, and represents longevity, wisdom. The lion is an inhabitant of the earth, a representative of the element of fire, courage, confidence. Toucan - the element of air, freedom of movement and choice. Water is vital energy, clean and pure. Vegetation - growth, we need clean, healthy food, air and just beauty for the eyes.<br><br></div>

Eath. Water. Air. 

Martynas Auž

<div>"Dainava" is a colour composition that looks like decor in the yard at the first glance, starting from cats and ladders, sea and to flamingo and balloons. There are things for the kids to do trying to count and find all the cats hiding in the drawing and thus develop their fantasy.<br><br></div>

Dainava

Tadas Vincaitis - Plūgas

<div>New mural - a present for children.&nbsp;</div>

Ačiū 

<div>Work performed together with Yard Gallery, Nykoka festival and Small Walls Project.<br>Kaunas, 2018.<br><br></div>

Stork

<div>Do you see faces of grandmother and her grandchild? Here, in this park, once was an old cemetery. So, I think, this artwork really fits into the place.</div>

Saying goodbye (Farewell) 

<div>What do you feel when you see an old person? This mural reminds us that today, in the age of youth, we have to be nice to old people, respect their experience and wisdom. Great idea and beautiful artwork!</div>

Grandmother 

<div>Logistics and business center A1 in Kaunas, near the highway Vilnius-Kaunas-Klaipėda.&nbsp;<br><br>Drawn about 1650 square meters and the drawing itself lasted 2 seasons. Mural made in collaboration with Tomas Dėžutė.</div>

"Tires in the sky"

Linas Kaziulionis

<div>"Dadaist Mona Lisa in the 21st Century" is a combination of the fragments of "Mona Lisa" and math problems. Technological solutions are added to the painting. This work is painted with 3D effect. Mona Lisa is wearing special glasses made of light tubes.<br><br>Author of the interactive solutions is Tomas Stasiukaitis.</div>

"Dadaist Mona Lisa in the 21st Century"

Žygimantas Amelynas and Tadas Šimkus

<div>This mural welcomes all city guests who travels to Kaunas by train. Authors of this mural wanted to bring some romance into controversial part of the city - the Station district. Also very symbolic that nearby there is a flower market.</div>

Bicyclist with a rose

<div>This mural contains many meanings. First of all, red and green figures in a black circle hint at the signs used in the traffic lights. The red figure symbolises the immobility, while the green one invites us to move on. According to Morfai, this refers to life itself: sometimes you have to act, but sometimes you have to wait for the right moment.</div>

The fight

Os Gemeos

<div>Twin brothers from Brazil has Lithuanian roots - their mother was born in a family of a Lithuanian father and a Brazilian mother. This mural is a visualisation of dreams that combine the elements of Brazilian culture and images from Lithuania.&nbsp;</div>

<div>Made for Kaunas streetart festival NYKOKA 2015.&nbsp;</div>

<div>2015. The mural portrays a white bear which stands on an ice floe, holds a piece of ice like diamond on a stick and looks at it with sadness. The artists want to raise the awarness about global warming, since melting glaciers endager white bears.</div>

Ice diamond

<div>This colourful yard has been opened in 2014 and is still a growing art project. Here everyone can feel unique good atmosphere.&nbsp;</div>

Courtyard gallery 

<div>2014.<br>The common lilac growing in the yard of Kaunas Artist House has inspired an idea about an artist-intelectual who not only generates ideas and values, but also lives by them.</div>

The lilac shall bloom again

Goda Skėrytė and Ieva Voroneckytė

<div>Šilainiai district is full of grey apartment buildings. I think a magic unicorn in Northern lights is something this place needed the most.&nbsp;<br><br>"Šilainiai Project" is collaborating with Kaunas street art festival NYKOKA and this is the first legal street art project in the neighbourhood.</div>

Unicorn

<div>2014. The idea to create The Pink Elephant has been inspired by an inscription on the wall "Deima + Arūnas". Acording to artist, this phrase spoke about big love between 2 young people and thus decided to paint something as big as this love. And it had to be pink, since it is the way love is. This mural is a great example of a site-specific art, when the location suggests an idea of artwork.&nbsp;</div>

The Pink Elephant

<div>In collaboration with Morfai. Made in 2017.<br><br>Would you like to live in an apartment building where one wall is painted? People of this old house agreed for some changes.</div>

Yard

<div>This mural has been completed in collaboration with Kaunas University of Technology. The elements of classical paintings have been combined with the symbols relatable to the modern youth.&nbsp;</div>

Contemporary ladies

<div>2013. This mural was one of the first large-scale street art projects in Lithuania.&nbsp;</div>

The old wiseman

<div>The artist depicted a girl who returned home to her nesting box like a bird. The mural made with transparent aerosol paints looks contextual, it playfully greets guests of the city just nearby stepping out of tourist buses and flocking towards Kaunas Castle or Town Hall Square.&nbsp;</div>

I‘ve returned home

Marius Skrupskis

<div>The astronaut symbolises the heights, high aspirations and strenght that helps to break through various obstacles and even walls.</div>

Towards the goal

<div>This wall belongs to creative center "Potiomkinas" which is located in former Kaunas Meat Factory in suburb Aleksotas. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many small businessmen bought buildings at this factory and now it becomes an attractive city area for small businesses.</div>

Kaunas creative spirits

<div>On a building belonging to Žilinskas Art Gallery on Kęstutis Street, you can find a mural depicting David who is about to kill a giant Goliath by throwing a slingshot. David‘s target is an abandoned “Britanika” hotel on the side, it’s carcass never lived up to the day of any guests staying in it. The statuesque fourteen level height building symbolises the gigantism and ambitions of the Soviet Union. The building of it began in 1986 but soon it turned into ruins and has been "decorating" the city centre since.&nbsp;<br><br></div>

David

<div>The mural has been completed in collaboration with Tomas Dėžutė - a street artist from Kaunas.&nbsp;</div>
