The distURBANces project, cooperatively initiated by the partner cities Bratislava, Budapest, Ljubljana, Luxembourg, Paris and Vienna, presents artistic positions that offer new perspectives on urban, technological and political developments. Initiated as a kind of tribute to the American science fiction writer Philip K.

VIDEO IN PROGRESS 5: Reflections of the Past
Thursday, 5 June at 8 pm / Komuna, Kino Šiška, Ljubljana
Video in Progress is an international video festival, directed by artists and curators Vesna Bukovec and Metka Zupanič and organised by Zavod Kolektiva in collaboration with Photon – Centre for Contemporary Photography, Ljubljana. In 2014, the festival joined with Photonic Moments – Month of Photography festival.

NIKA RUPNIK: Cityjet
Thursday, 5 June at 8 pm / Kiosk, Kino Šiška, Ljubljana
Kiosk completes this year’s cycle of young generation artists presenting their latest works. In her site-specific installations, the academic painter Nika Rupnik explores the cross-sections and embededness of photography in a totality of space invaded by multi-media. She reveals – through the structures of order, trash and drawing – the grace and aesthetics of in/completeness. MORE…
