Artists presented at the exhibition: Špela Petrič, Maja Smrekar, Saša Spačal, Robertina Šebjanič, Polona Tratnik. A number of artists in Slovenia are successfully working at the intersection of art, science and technology.
Academic sculptor Dragica Čadež is one of the first Slovenian artists to see sculpture as an open form, a form expanding into space, enabling viewers to not only journey along the sculpture but also through it. After the year 2000, she has focused her aesthetic exploration on works in clay.
Jože Barši, who entered the art scene in the late 1980s as a member of the so-called New Slovene Sculpture generation, has left a significant mark on the development of contemporary Slovenian visual art after the year 1990. From the very beginning, his work focused on changing the relations of the artist and public towards an artwork.
News
In the desire to make “Exhibition with Many Titles” by the outstanding Croatian conceptual artist Vlado Martek more accessible, we have decided to present it to you through private guided tours which will be given by Alenka Gregorič, the art director of the City Art Gallery Ljubljana and the curator of the exhibition.
The series of videos presenting the artists’ preparations for the upcoming exhibition “Free Sun” in the City Art Gallery Ljubljana continues with Miha Štrukelj. His video outlines the creation of Štrukelj’s work titled “Trolldomsfjellet”, which is a Norwegian word for magic mountain.
Due to the current situation, we have understandably postponed the opening of the exhibition “Free Sun” to a later date. Fortunately, however, artists that will present themselves in the upcoming show have been emerging from their self-isolation.
