Plečnik's Ljubljana on View in Moscow
The exhibition Plečnik’s Ljubljana opened yesterday at the Schusev State Museum of Architecture in Moscow, as part of the Season of Slovenian Culture in the Russian Federation 2017/18. The exhibition is a joint effort by the Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana and the Museum of Architecture and Design, with support from the Ministry of Culture. Already last year, residents of numerous European and global capitals already had the opportunity to see the show.
The exhibition opening was reported for TV Slovenia by its Russian correspondent Vlasta Jeseničnik. Why Plečnik’s architecture is of interest to the Russian public was explained for the TV camera by one of the exhibition’s visitors, “His creativity is interesting as it combines different styles. He joins them skilfully and that is unusual in architecture, from a Russian perspective.”
