Event information Event

The historic Kaunas Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Crafts houses an unusual kiosk – a shoe repair shop. Only, it is not shoes they will be patching up here, but rather the cracks in the city’s industrial memory. Images by Psilikono Teatras and sounds by percussionist Arkadijus Gotesmanas will awaken the history of the legendary Lituanica shoe factory. Shoes turned into characters will grin, flashing their nail-teeth, and wiggle their lace whiskers as the shoemaker’s hammer blows become dynamic contemporary percussion compositions. “As long as we were sewing our own shoes, we knew where we were going”, says the performance’s creative team, inviting us to seek out a future direction together.

About performer

Psilikono Teatras was founded by the artists Auksė Petrulienė and Darius Petrulis, who work across the fields of interdisciplinary and community art. Since Psilikono Teatras’s first projection of an artwork on the wall of a nine-storeyresidential building in Šilainiai courtyard in 2005, the artists have focused on the themes of memory and activism.

Arkadijus Gotesmanas is a percussionist, performer of avant-garde jazz and contemporary music, and associate professor at the Jazz Department of the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre. An artist with a wide musical range, he usually performs his own solo, uniquely virtuosic and theatrical compositions. Gotesmanas’s music is brimming with voices, texts, magic, poetry, novel combinations of musical instruments, and percussive sounds, not for hearing so much as for feeling.
