“A tower, a mule, me and the garden” – that is how Jože Plečnik imagined his life when he didn’t know yet that after Vienna ...
The third of four exhibitions presented in Plečnik House during the Plečnik Year 2022 offers an insight into the work, methods and curricula of Plečnik's School in Ljubljana. Along with Plečnik's creations an almost equally important ingredient of his legacy is also his pedagogical work, which is still reverberating today in the works of his students.
Plečnikov opus skozi fotografski objektiv in avtorski pogled priznanega italijanskega fotografa.
Tudi v letu 2023 bomo v Plečnikovo hišo povabili sodobno umetnico, tokrat Dorit Margreiter, ki bo v sodelovanju s kuratorko Felicitas Thun-Hohenstein pripravila projekt v dialogu s Plečnikovo dediščino.
Razstava nastaja ob 110. obletnici rojstva arhitekta Vlasta Kopača, ki jo obeležujemo v letu 2023. Kopač se je leta 1934 vpisal na oddelek za arhitekturo ljubljanske univerze in bil v letih od 1937 do 1940 pri profesorju Jožetu Plečniku zaposlen kot risar.
Na razstavi, ki nastaja v sodelovanju z Umetnostnozgodovinskim inštitutom Franceta Steleta ZRC SAZU, bo skozi bogato ohranjeno korespondenco dr. Franceta Steleta predstavljen tesen strokovni in prijateljski odnos med Plečnikom in Steletom, ki je bil v času gradnje Plečnikovih ljubljanskih projektov odgovorni konservator in vodja spomeniškega urada.

As Plečnik’s jubilee year is coming to its end, the coming new year is bringing quite a few original projects to the Plečnik House. They will focus on Plečnik’s work in connection with how we see and experience him today. Let 2023 be the year full of cultural meetings with Plečnik’s heritage!
This Sunday and next Tuesday, 6 and 8 November, Plečnik House will be exceptionally closed to visitors due to the preparation of the exhibition 'I am only the housekeeper, but I don't know...'. Thank you for your understanding.
Following the Slovene, Czech, and German editions of the graphic novel Plečnik (full stop) we are happy to announce the English version.
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!
