Join us on a journey through time with an exhibition on significant changes in the world of clothing. The exhibition will open the doors to the world of dressing as a distinct form of communication, revealing societal shifts and individual milestones that influenced the decisions of our ancestors on how to dress.
The Jakopič Gallery presents the largest ever mid-career retrospective exhibition of Klavdij Sluban, one of the world's most renowned photographers of Slovenian origin. For the exhibition Elsewhere Here the artist and the curator Dr Marija Skočir, have conceived a completely new selection of cycles that present the highlights of more than three decades of Sluban's work in more than 150 photographs. The exhibition is accompanied by an extensive photomontograph, which is also available as a special edition.
Perception is a subject that has always fascinated both scientists and non-scientists. Nature itself offers a range of optical phenomena, such as the mirage or the iridescent colours of butterfly wings, shells and soap bubbles, and raises questions about the changeable forms in which the visible appears.
“A tower, a mule, me and the garden” – that is how Jože Plečnik imagined his life when he didn’t know yet that after Vienna and Prague his native Ljubljana would be his lifetime’s environment for his creative work.
A special place in Ljubljana's history is reserved for Roman Emona, the traces of which have been preserved in the very centre of the city.
Welcome to a trail tracing the 2000-year-old heritage of Emona. A walk through modern Ljubljana can take you further than you think! It takes you to the time of Emona, a city brimming with life between the first century and early sixth century.
A tribute to the museum as a place of encounter and dialogue.
How well do you know the rich history of Slovenian capital? Pile-dwellers, Emona, Middle and New Ages, the 20th and 21st centuries… what is the history of Ljubljana? Get to know Ljubljana's past - see the chronological presentation of Ljubljana’s millennia of heritage with precious authentic artefacts, like the world's oldest wooden wheel with an axle!
The collection gives an impression of a personal archive of dreams, hopes, secrets and regrets.
The central theme of the final assignment was Challenge: Tomorrow’s Yesterday, developed in collaboration with the City Museum of Ljubljana. Each student set off on a journey exploring paintings, portraits and objects exhibited in the museum. Next, they immersed into the theme and searched for inspiration, which culminated in the prodigious diversity of collections thus developed.
In developing their design concept, 1st and 2nd year students in the Faculty of Design’s Fashion and Textiles track drew on the City Museum of Ljubljana’s permanent collection.
