On 23 February, at 7 pm, presentation and screening of the film “Modern Apartment” by LTMKS member Dainius Li\u0161kevi\u010dius will take place in the SODAS2123 Act Hall. Hosted by Danut\u0117 Gambickait\u0117.<\/p>\n
Artist Dainius Li\u0161kevi\u010dius invites us into his living space where the line between the mundane and the creative is blurred. Home videos and contemporary documentary footage form the film\u2019s cohesive tapestry, with the artist\u2019s flat playing a central role. The flat reveals the everyday world of not just the artist but also his family. This microcosm shows the many ways how day-to-day activities \u2013 the ritual of removing the Christmas tree, parties, moving furniture, choosing which drawings will go on the wall, drinking tea \u2013 are transformed into performances. The private home space turns into a scene, and family members become actors. The mysterious story of the flat is unraveled in parallel with that of the artist\u2019s works.<\/p>\n
