Res Publica

Together with its sister exhibitions Touch Nature as a transborder format, the exhibition explores the question of what we understand as a public thing. As part of the Midsummer Festival, spaces and phenomena that are not usually recognised as res publica will be examined. For example, nature, protest movements, pandemics, festivals, literature, Ambisonic or the virtual space of computer games. References to and in public space as well as links and collaborations with other art and cultural projects play an important role.

Annually, several exhibitions of contemporary art from Slovenia, Austria and the whole world are shown. In addition, there are bilingual book presentations, concerts and discussions in the Pavelhaus.
