The photos displayed in the exhibition “54°53’50” N, 23°53’10” E Niekieno miestas – Nobody’s Town“ were inspired by the images of the pre-war Kaunas in the photographs of Mečys Brazaitis, who was brilliant in rendering the vision of a developing European town. The images correspond to the reminiscences of Marcelijus Martinaitis. In his book „Mes gyvenome. Biografiniai užrašai“2009 (We Lived. Biographical Notes), M. Martinaitis describes: „…Hard and tedious as the work had been, people’s financial situation improved, and the last years of Lithuanian independence remain in my memory as very bright.. . . . “
