“…А найвиразнішою особливістю постмодерної архітектури у Вільнюсі була тенденція до історичності. Прикметною рисою цієї радянської версії постмодернізму було його переплетення з дискурсом дисидентства, коли нові способи художнього вираження уможливлювати спротив офіційній ідеології (Mankus, 2018).

“…Experiments in urban public spaces, giving the way to pedestrians and creating urban design marked a new stage in postmodern urbanism, and the most striking feature of postmodern architecture in Vilnius was the tendency to historicity. A special characteristic of the Soviet version of postmodernism was its intertwining with dissident discourse, when new modes of expression allowed to oppose the official ideology (Mankus 2018). Architectural projects can be seen not just as a critique of the standardization of the Soviet urban environment, but as a desire to symbolically give meaning to the public spaces, reclaim historic memory and activate social heritage movement.…”

How can we interpret the architects' desire to look postmodern in the last decade of soviet architecture (1980-1990)? Can it be explained according to René Girard’s theory of 'mimetic desire'? How much was it an imitation of Western forms, and how much was it connected to the vernacular turn, resulting in irreverent 'overuse' of historical references? Emphasis on the genius loci, vernacular elements, and search for historical/cultural identity indicates that themes usually associated with the postmodern architecture surfaced in the Eastern Bloc long before the demise of the socialist political system. The paper is focused on the 1980s architectural competitions in Vilnius, Lithuania, where younger generations of architects presented postmodern designs that widely employed historical references

Summary The research delves into the complex and multi-layered transition of Lithuania from a Soviet to a post-Soviet society, focusing on the architectural landscape as a reflection of ideological shifts. It explores the period from Gorbachev’s initiation of perestroika in 1986 to the Baltic States’ entry into the EU and NATO in 2004, a time marked by significant transformations within the architectural, social, and political realms. First, using Greimasian Square, the study categorises and analyses the reactions toward Soviet Modernist architecture, observing the gradual shift from a representation of state ideology to a canvas reflecting a myriad of individual and collective experiences, also assuming the artistic value of the architects’ output. Second, utilising frameworks from Western architectural criticism figures such as Peter Blake, Robert Venturi and the Situationists, the study contextualises and collates with architectural trends in public interiors or private constructions in Lithuania. Additionally, presumptions are correlated with a crisis in the architectural profession, characterised by a rise in private constructions without architects. Through semiotic view architectural discourse becomes a vital element in understanding the broader cultural and political shifts in post-Soviet Lithuania.
