City Art Gallery Ljubljana is preparing its programme for 2026 which will address key themes of contemporary social reality through the experience of art and its accessibility to the public, such as social responsibility, cooperation, inclusion, and community. The programme will focus on human identity as both an autonomous subject and a constituent part of a broader collective fabric, as well as on the wide range of positive and negative human actions. In this context, the gallery will continue its survey exhibitions of established Slovenian artists and collectives; their work will also be contextualised through exhibition catalogues and a rich accompanying and discursive programme, including moderated talks, presentations, and guided tours. The featured exhibitions will present the oeuvres of Silvester Plotajs Sicoe (5 March–3 May 2026), Tanja Lažetić (21 May–30 August 2026), Borut Krajnc (17 September–15 November 2026), and the collective Strip Core (3 December 2026–8 February 2027).
The City Art Gallery Ljubljana concludes 2022 with the exhibition of Mitja Ficko and Marko Jakše, which will remain on display until February 2023. An intermedia overview exhibition of Jasna Hribernik is opening in March, followed by a photographic exhibition by Meta Krese in May. Academic painter Jurij Kalan will receive its first presentation at the City Art Gallery Ljubljana in the autumn of next year, while 2023 will conclude with an intermedia group show, which will present works by Miha Godec, Urša Vidic, Maja Smrekar, and Boris Beja.
The City Art Gallery Ljubljana will be starting the new year with Žarko Vrezec’s survey exhibition; followed by a presentation of the private collection of the Vienna-based gallerist Ernst Hilger; the most comprehensive presentation to date of works by the academically trained sculptor, Metod Frlic and a survey exhibition of selected design works by Ranko Novak. Our final exhibition of 2022 will present the two academically trained painters, Mitja Ficko and Marko Jakše.
