  3. "When the #Ginsburg family gathered in #Kaunas on June 22, 1941, fourteen of them spent the day arguing over a single question. Should they flee east behind the retreating #Soviets, or stay? They weighed the #Germans. Some recalled the German occupation of the #FirstWorldWar and reasoned that the Germans were not so bad, that life would be harder but better than under the #Communists. They decided to stay. Of the fourteen who sat together that day, #WaldemarGinsburg alone survived the war. Years later he explained what they had failed to anticipate. They had expected trouble from the Germans, “but the trouble came from a direction which we did not expect.”

    That sentence contains the history of the two weeks that followed. Between June 22 and July 6, 1941, the #Jews of Kaunas learned that the most immediate threat to their lives was not the invading army. It was the people among whom they had lived. Neighbors. Tradesmen. Men from their own streets."

  11. We just arrived in Kaunas 🇱🇹 and I started testing my magnetic artworks in the streets for the first time.
    This is the beginning of a new series — Art Travels — where I explore cities through street art, architecture, food, and small details… while leaving a bit of my own work behind.

  15. Athletics Arena by Archas frames movement through stillness. Its concrete mass and vertical fins compose a silent monument to precision, where sport becomes spatial order rather than spectacle.
