John Fekner is considered one of the most "famous unfamous" artists working in New York in the late 1970s and 1980s. He set his urban poetry to music, then transformed the words into stark public phrases, which, in journalistic typography, flooded like graffiti onto the buildings of a decaying metropolis that was beginning to be swallowed up by gentrification. He was part of the vibrant New York art scene of the time, exhibiting alongside Keith Haring, David Wojnarowicz, Jenny Holzer and others, and as one of the first Space Invaders, in tandem with Don Leicht, he took over the Bronx with the distinctive motifs of the computer game of the same name.

The Match Gallery in 2024

In February the slovenian artist and activist The Miha Artnak will launch a new exhibition season at the Match Gallery with the project Owned. In April, the caravan of the Ljubljana Bows to Slovenija series will stop at Tubolje, and in spring and summer we will traditionally host the Light Guerrilla festival, this time on the theme of Transformations. In autumn, we are preparing an exhibition of the slovenian artist Matej Stupica, and we are closing the year with a presentation of the New York artist John Fekner, one of the pioneers of street art.

Turn Into the Wall: New mural on the museum inner facade

The new temporary mural, which adorns the facade of the inner courtyard of the City Museum of Ljubljana, creates a playful bridge between the exterior and the interior of the museum and gives a new function to the existing building elements. It was created by Krashkid, a German street artist selected through an international call for entries Turn Into The Wall. Alongside the mural on the so-called 'turn' you can see a panel exhibition of the ten best mural proposals selected by the international jury.

Match Gallery

The Match Gallery, as its name tells us, is a space for fiery new ideas. It is a venue dedicated to projects from all sorts of contemporary artistic practices; performance, visual arts, audio-visual, and other. Within this smaller and extremely flexible venue in the very centre of Ljubljana we are stimulating varying reactions of culture and art in the context of urban culture, while we are also contributing to the definition of this phenomenon. Match Gallery is a laboratory of new ideas, creative formulas and inventive approaches towards quality art production.
