Welcome to the Biennial Archive website!
The new website of the Ljubljana Biennial of Graphic Arts has been conceived as an overview of Biennial events from 1955 to the present day. It presents one of the oldest international art events that began with the desire to show a graphic map of the world in Ljubljana. With the introduction of the curatorial approach after 2001, the limitations to a single medium were dispelled and it began to develop into a museum and out-of-museum entity reflecting contemporary art and curatorial practice.
eto ti na exhibition
The Amsterdam-based artist Nora Turato presented herself in Slovenia in 2017 as part of the 32nd Ljubljana Biennial of Graphic Arts and her solo show eto ti na took place between 11 September and 8 November 2020 at the International Centre of Graphic Arts. The curator of the exhibition Vladimir Vidmar highlights that "her works function as notations of the collective unconscious of the digital age, of our traumas and desires".
