guided by: Jure Kirbiš, curator of the exhibition
Join us on guided tour of the exhibition Great migration held by the curator Jure Kirbiš on Saturday and Wednesday, 8 and 12 October and on the final guiding tour on 21 October.
Works of art, after they leave from under the hands of their authors, begin to live lives of their own. At UGM | Maribor Art Gallery we therefore decided to activate works from our collection to address the present. A present which calls for a prudent reflection and evaluation of our own position in the midst of a crisis of a large number of displaced persons, which in the summer of last year developed into a political and moral battlefield on the national, European and global level and has since become a part of our everyday. Art is not just a mirror passively observing society. Art is there to comment on and evaluate society, and most importantly - it is a part of what helps shape society.
Artists: Nika Autor, Jasmina Cibic, Zmago Jeraj, Duša Jesih, Dušan Kirbiš, Ivana Kobilca, Tone Kralj, Iztok Maroh, Ante Trstenjak, Milan Vojsk, Ivan Žabota Danish focus: Naja Maria Lundstrøm, Vladimir Tomic Curator: Jure Kirbiš
FREE ENTRANCE! YOU ARE KINDLY INVITED!
