Geocache Description:


LT. Iš bronzos atlieta monumentalių erdvinių formų dekoratyvinė skulptūra puošia Jono Basanavičiaus gimnazijos stadiono prieigas. Menininkė teigė, jog skulptūros idėja buvo tokia, kad ant jos būtų galima užlipti, šalia sėdėti. Tai viena brangiausių skulptūrų mieste, nes buvo lieta Taline, vaško formoje. Tuo metu tai buvo pats brangiausias liejimo būdas. Seniau visi pagarbiai žiūrėjo, vertino meno kūrinį, tačiau dabar vandalai meno kūrinį vis apipaišo.

ĮDOMU: kai kurie vietiniai Šilainiškiai skulptūrą vadina drambliu - atrodo jog ji turi straublį ir kojas.

 

Kaunas Street Art - tai penkių geolobiavimo entuziastų ir Kauno fanų (Matekarlo, Skiedra, KaunasLT, Litawor, Vykintas Gervė) kuriamas naujas geo-slėptuvių takas, pakviesiantis aplankyti ypatingas Kauno vietas - spalvotus namus, įsimintinus graffiti, skulptūras, memorialus.

Tekstų ir nuotraukų autorius - Vykintas Gervė (gerve.lt) sukūręs "Gatvės meno žemėlapį" ir vedantis ekskursijas. Ačiū jam už įdirbį, Kauno sužymėjimą ir leidimą naudoti info geoslėptuvių kūrimui. Žemėlapyje virš 250 taškų. Trail'e gal bus mažiau. O gal ir ne ;)

 

EN. A decorative sculpture of monumental spatial forms cast from bronze adorns the entrances of Jonas Basanavičius Gymnasium stadium. The artist said that the idea of ​​the sculpture was such that it would be possible to climb on it, to sit next to it. It is one of the most expensive sculptures in the city because it was cast in Tallinn, in the form of wax. At the time, it was the most expensive method of casting. In the past, everyone watched and appreciated a work of art, but now vandals are still painting on a work of art.

INTERESTING: some locals from Šilainiai call the sculpture an elephant - it seems to have a stork and legs.

 

Kaunas Street Art is a new Geocaching trail created by five geocaching enthusiasts and Kaunas fans (Matekarlo, Skiedra, KaunasLT, Litawor, Vykintas Gerve), inviting you to visit special places in Kaunas - colorful houses, memorable graffiti, sculptures, memorials.

The author of the texts and photos is Vykintas Gervė (gerve.lt), who has created the "Street Art Map" and is a professional tourism guide. Thanks to him for his work, pinpointing of locations and permission to use the info for creation of geocaches. The map has more than 250 points on the map. There may be less points on the trail. Or maybe not;)
