Description

Slovenia has numerous fascinating art museums, but none that are household names abroad, so they remain very pleasant surprises for visitors who discover them. In this episode, Dr. Noah Charney explores some of his favourite art museums in Slovenia, with a focus on those outside of Ljubljana. To cover some of those in Ljubljana, Dr. Noah Charney asked a few art world friends – Marko Jenko, a curator at the forthcoming Lah Museum, Matthew McQuarrie, a gallery owner and an American architect living in Slovenia, Blaž Peršin, the director of the City Museums of Ljubljana, and an Jaša Mrevlje-Pollak, a conceptual artist, for their tips. 

With Matthew McQuarrie, an American architect living in Slovenia, who coordinates the Dobre novice art exhibition featuring renowned international artists in Kamnik, the discussion delves into the importance of art in revitalizing communities and promoting critical thinking. Marko Jenko, a renowned curator, offers insights into the Lah Museum set to open in 2024. Blaž Peršin, Director of Museums and Galleries of Ljubljana, oversees various museums and galleries in the city and discusses the diverse art scene in Slovenia, spanning historical influences to contemporary trends. Jaša Mrevlje-Pollak, arguably Slovenia's highest-profile conceptual artist, with appearances at the Venice Biennale and the Frieze Art Fair, shares his perspective on the contemporary art landscape in Slovenia, spotlighting institutions such as Moderna Galerija, Cukrarna, UGM, the Art Gallery in Maribor, and Obalne Galerije Piran.
