UGM | Maribor Art Gallery presents a traveling exhibition Alptraum, conceived by artist Marcus Sendlinger (Berlin). It has been traveling the world since 2010, with one aim only – to build a collection of artists' visions of a nightmare (Alptraum). In each stopover city around 15 new artists are added to the exhibition, exploring the relationship between the individual, the national and the global collective subconscious. The exhibition has thus far travelled through Washington, London, Berlin, Los Angeles, Cape Town and Manila, among others. There are 116 artists from 13 countries participating in the traveling exhibition, joined by 17 new artists from around Slovenia for the occasion of the exhibition in Maribor.
Marcus Sendlinger and Jure Kirbiš will talk about the concept of the exhibition and discuss the use of nightmare as theme in art history.
FREE ENTRY! YOU ARE KINDLY INVITED!
