Exhibitions
Plečnik’s urban projects reflect a unique blend of classical and modernist styles and shape the identity of today’s Ljubljana. His works are renowned for their innovative use of spoliation – the reuse of historical architectural elements or spolia, which he skilfully integrated into his architectural designs. Plečnik's use of spolia is highlighted in the exhibition and accompanying publication ‘Repurpose, Reinterpret: Tracing Spolia and Reuse in Plečnik’s Ljubljana’.
After its successful presentation at the Plečnik House, the exhibition 'Master Woodcarver Maks Bergant and Plečnik: The Charm of Wood' moved to Kamnik – the town where Bergant spent most of his creative life. Its display at the Inter-municipal Museum Kamnik at Zaprice Castle is both a tribute to a local artist and an opportunity for visitors to discover a valuable heritage that was born in Kamnik yet transcended local boundaries.
“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 and Prague his native Ljubljana would be his lifetime’s environment for his creative work.
