The National and University Library, Plečnik as Inspiration, Plečnik's Unrealised Projects for Ljubljana, Plečnik's sacral artefacts, and his last fully realised project, the pavilion on Brioni — all of them will leave a mark on the 2019 exhibition programme for the Plečnik House.
Having opened at the end of June in the Norbertov Centre, Prague, the exhibition ‘Plečnik House. The Architect’s Experimental Hotbed’ has been received so warmly that it remains on view in the Czech capital until Sunday 21 October 2018.
The first half of this year has brought an appealing range of professional publications on architecture, which featured the works of Jože Plečnik as well as the related plans that are kept in the Plečnik Collection of the Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana.
Plečnik House
Walking through Ljubljana it is impossible to ignore the abundance of arrangements and architectural creations made by the Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik. Born in Ljubljana, Plečnik learned his craft in Vienna and acquired a creative broadness of mind in Prague. He deftly implemented his skills as he returned to Ljubljana, where he created the phenomenon now called Plečnik’s Ljubljana. Many of his ideas were conceived in his home, a house in Trnovo, a monument of national importance since 2009 and today a public museum. You are kindly invited to visit the Plečnik House and learn about this modest man responsible for such monumental architecture. Enter the house in which Plečnik’s Ljubljana was created!
