Dear visitors, Jakopič Gallery is closed to all visitors from October 24, 2020, until further notice. We believe we will meet again soon. Until then, let's stay in virtual touch.
In cooperation with the Social Communication Research Centre of the Faculty of Social Sciences and the Membrana Institute for Research, Education and Cultural Activities the Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana is preparing a scientific and exhibition project on the topic of Slovenian reportage photography, or photoreportage as the most pronounced genre of this photography category.
At the photographer’s hitherto largest exhibition, visitors will be able to experience Ballen’s visualisation of worlds situated between dreams and reality.
The exhibition is a narrative of the importance of glaciers told in a scientific, illustrative, and poetic way and each artist has a unique take on the subject.

After a year of enthusiasm, hard work and international cooperation, we are proud to see the exhibition Vision 20/20: Community – Contemporary Indonesian Engaged Photography finalised and ready for our visitors.

Jakopič Gallery
Being one of the central MGML galleries, the Jakopič Gallery is part of the vital developments in the field of contemporary art practices in the Slovenian capital and elsewhere. Its projects cover manifold fields within the visual as well as performance and multimedia art spectre. In the past decade, the gallery has been focusing on presenting globally acclaimed photographers (Roger Ballen, Lee Miller, Josef Koudelka and other Magnum photographers, Sebastião Salgado). Additional emphasis has been on thorough and retrospective exhibitions by renowned Slovenian photographers (Marko Modic, Damjan Gale, Tihomir Pinter, et al.), featuring their extensive, often lifelong oeuvres that had previously not been treated expertly as a whole.
