Kindly invited to the opening of the project geopuncture circle by sculptor Marko Pogačnik, which will take place at Maribor city park. The project is a result of cooperation of Maribor Art Gallery, Vitaaa Society, and companies Nigrad and Snaga. The opening spokesperson will be the mayor of the Municipality of Maribor, dr. Andrej Fištravec. Guided tour will be held by the artist himself, Marko Pogačnik, at 16:00.

The project has started in 2004 as a way of establishing the communication between Man and Earth as noosphere. The artist calls the stones "cosmograms". Marko Pogačnik started his cultural engagement during his early high school years, continuing with the conceptualistic group OHO. He studied at the Academy of fine arts and design in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Ever since, he is working as a freelance artist.

Participation is free of charge. KINDLY INVITED!
