Artists, scholars and social activists show increased interest in the narrative and visual documenting of border’s closures. The border’s visuality becomes a supporting argument for dissent and protest, giving the ‘visual evidence’ of the extremely quick border’s re-terr…

The Figure of the Migrant and a Lithuanian Attempt to Escape from Herself
For those engaged in the visual arts, the notion of the border is not just a physical reality imposed on the landscape by historical circumstances and political forces; it is also the subject of imagination, representation and visualization.

This essay examines the relativities between the so-called re-territoria…

Philosophy of Matter Manipulation in Brothers Quay’ Metaphorical Animation World / Manipuliavimo Materija Filosofija Brolių Quay Metaforiniame Animacijos Pasaulyje
The paper deals with the concept of matter manipulation and its vitality in the Brothers Quay’ works. The matter manipulation is not limited to the actual “matter”.

Transforming Borders Functions in the Lithuanian‐polish‐belarusian Borderland
This article is an attempt to give an answer to the question: what are the consequences of the weakening factor of territorial belonging and how it in fact realizes in the Lithuanian‐Polish‐Belarusian borderland?

Multi-Cultural Values and Borders
The presumption of this paper is the view of multi‐culturalism as a concept grounded on an assumption, rather than data, and legitimized by proclamation, rather than legislation. Multi‐culturalism as a socio‐political construction is not only “a multi‐cultural and multi‐religious mosaic”, but it has its own values. The new borders inside the European Union (EU) are non‐territorial, which confirms the new paradigm about the weakening factor of ter…
