VŽIGALICA, GALLERY, LJUBLJANA; The 2007 renovation of the premises of the former Križanke Cultural and Information Centre gave rise to the Vžigalica Gallery. The space has not only undergone a transformation in terms of physical renovation, image and name, but mainly as regards its programme and organisation.
During the past three years of its operation, the Vžigalica Gallery has risen to prominence as a venue for varied projects pertaining to contemporary visual, audio-visual, performance and other art practices. So far, the co-operation with non-governmental and other organisations active in the field of culture has yielded results and offered new perspectives on both sides, which is why this co-operation will also continue in 2011.
The Vžigalica Gallery retains its basic concept of a smaller yet extremely flexible art gallery in the very centre of Ljubljana. Its task will remain to encourage various reactions of both culture and art to the idea of urban culture and, at the same time, to contribute to defining this phenomenon.
Opening times:
Tuesday - Sunday: 10.00-18.00
Monday: Closed
