UGM | Maribor Art Gallery enters the old sanatorium, a modernist villa in the centre of Maribor, with the 9th edition of the Triennial of Art and Environment EKO. With the exhibition Eyes in the Stone, we give power to the primary emotion of fear to jolt us from our numbness to seemingly failing warnings of science. The artists in the exhibition respond in form and narrative to the threatening atmosphere in nature and culture. Step into the villa of frights!
