One example of such interpretation is the video series made by \u201cAura\u201d dance theatre team and videographer Marius Paplauskas, filmed in five modernist buildings, creating a new relationship between the architecture and the audience, as well as the aesthetic quality. National elements in the Great Hall of the Lithuanian Armed Forces officers club \u201cRamov\u0117\u201d, impressive symmetry in the staircase, <em>teraco<\/em> floors, the iconic circular window of Pranas Gudavi\u010dius and Aleksandra Iljinien\u0117&#8217;s house and the Moorish style alcove, the authentic mechanisms of the \u017daliakalnis funicular become modern and unexpected scenography.\u201d V.

I have always had an inner story with me, which each viewer will read in their own way or just observe the dynamics of movement in the wonderful architecture of Kaunas. The mechanism of the \u017daliakalnis funicular, like a propeller lifting the city into action, the echoing Philharmonic hall with giant columns, the tranquility of the Lithuanian Armed Forces officers club \u201cRamov\u0117\u201d its own history and all other spaces made me think of different short stories and look at the camera from slightly different angles. Perhaps the biggest challenge was to bring everything together to show the architecture through dance and emphasize dancers&#8217; personalities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-6967\" src=\"https:\/\/dance.lt\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/546995-198111-1287x836-710x375.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"710\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dance.lt\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/546995-198111-1287x836-710x375.jpg 710w, https:\/\/dance.lt\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/546995-198111-1287x836-768x405.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dance.lt\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/546995-198111-1287x836-1100x580.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/dance.lt\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/546995-198111-1287x836-560x295.jpg 560w, https:\/\/dance.lt\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/546995-198111-1287x836.jpg 1287w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The importance of bringing contemporary dance as close to the audience as possible is well known by the Lithuanian Dance Information Center (LDIC). \u201cOne of the strategic goals of the Lithuanian Dance Information Center is to spread the message about contemporary dance in all possible forms.
