Elda Piščanec - Self-portrait /online express guided tour   
Saturday, 6 February 2021, 11:00

guided by: Urša Rotman, UGM expert associate

Join us in the week of celebration culture, when I will be counting down to Prešeren's Day with short live guides on social platforms. We will take you through paintings, drawings, graphics, statues and other works of art that adorn the Maribor Art Gallery. Every day we will present one artist from the exhibition 100+. The virtual cultural gathering will end with a variety of virtual events on Prešeren Day.

Elda Piščanec belongs to the first generation of artists who more decisively paved their way into the fine arts in the 1930s. In the self-portrait, she poses in front of the viewer in a three-quarter profile, in a bright pink dress and with a short fashionable hairstyle. She presents herself as a tidy and confident young woman.
