The exhibition Love Doesn't Pay the Rent by the Japanese multimedia artist Keiko Miyazaki, that works and lives in Celje, is based on the traumatic position of love, which in the demands of contemporary society has only a scarce amount of time at its disposal.
The main exhibition of the Lighting Guerrilla Festival is one of the most visited projects of the Match Gallery. The 19th edition of the festival is in preparation, with a series of light installations taking over the areas in the immediate surroundings of our gallery and other locations around Ljubljana, while the Lighting Guerrilla Laboratory will also include a series of workshops aimed at artists, students of Ljubljana faculties and high school students.

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.
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.
The five-member jury of the Open Call Turn into the Wall consulted the 136 proposals submitted to the international call for proposals for a mural and announced the German street artist Krashkid as the winner.
Events
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.
