Ceramics in Concept 4/2

06. 07. 2012 – 02. 09. 2012

The aim of the Ceramics in Concept 4/2 exhibition is to reaffirm the role and importance of ceramics as a specific medium of expression, which appears to various degrees of prominence in works by modern Slovenian artists in their site-specific projects. Four selected artists were invited to conceptualise the exhibition and present their work, each in one of the four different rooms of the former monastery, which we call the Lapidarium today:

Vera Stanković, MA in painting: I Bake Bread That You Can’t Eat
Nuša Lapajne Čurin, MA in painting: Spatial Systems
Iztok Amon, multimedia artist: Blindtopia – Artefact
Roman Makše, MA in sculpting: Spaces

A side-exhibition of the UNICUM 2012 International Ceramics Triennial.
