The exhibition GESTUS is structured as an assemblage, bringing together a wide range of artworks in different media and techniques. These include posters, glass objects, music, video, an assemblage constructed out of leftover material found in the storage spaces of Cukrarna Gallery, and digital illustrations printed on wood panels, fabric, and aluminium sheets. The exhibition is part of a one-month stay of the artist, musician, and writer Hassan Khan in Ljubljana and has been specially conceived for the Parter Gallery.
The exhibition is part of the major inter-institutional project Baroque in Slovenia and presents frescoes by the painter Josef Mayr, which were taken down from the ruins of the Križ Manor near Komenda in 1947. The installation takes the visitor into a recreated image of the salon, known in later literature as the billiard room, which was decorated with Mayr's frescoes.
If Walls Could Tell is a transnational project by Düsseldorf-based artist Mischa Kuball, which questions art and cultural institutions regarding their openness to broader social groups and their ideas.
A retrospective exhibition of the academic painter's work to mark the 50th anniversary of his career. As an important representative of expressive art, Jože Marinč is known for using strong colours, dynamic compositions and large formats.
The Japanese artist Keiko Miyazaki (1978), who lives in Celje, uses her personal history to develop a multimedia exhibition which shows the intricate unravelling of the threads of love and intimate relationships, the rebuilding of partnership and family under the challenging conditions of contemporary consumerism and a society that worships eternal youth and beauty.
Zora Stančič is an established visual artist who, through her extensive body of work, actively shapes contemporary Slovenian fine art. She explores the boundaries of printmaking and its role in modern visual language. Her first such comprehensive presentation at the City Art Gallery Ljubljana offers a thorough selection of graphic artworks, focusing on the diversity of narrative motifs and in-depth exploration of technical and formal execution. The exhibition is curated by Sarival Sosič, PhD, who places the exhibition within the broader context of contemporary artistic practices.
The exhibition is part of a series of exhibitions by artists presenting sculptures from a variety of materials. Jiří Bezlaj, one of the most prominent Slovenian sculptors, showcases his most recent works - objects made of paper, wood and iron.
Full of symbolism, vibrant colours and bold patterns, the photographs of contemporary Ethiopian artist Aïda Muluneh (1974) aim to reflect and raise awareness. Through her exceptional visual language, the photographer's work highlights pressing global issues such as inequalities in access to water, food or education, and the abuse of power, while advocating for the empowerment of women. We present her work at the exhibition On the Edge of Past Future, produced by Fotografie Forum Frankfurt (FFF).

Master woodcarver Maks Bergant (1912–1996) continued a long-standing tradition in which masters passed their knowledge through mentorships onto their apprentices and assistants. Though he honed his craft in Kamnik under the guidance of woodcarver Ivan Klemen, it was his collaboration with architect Jože Plečnik that profoundly shaped his artistic journey and left a lasting mark on his legacy.
