Blaž Vehovar: Paintings & Sculptures
14. 10. 2011 – 13. 11. 2011
Exhibition of paintings and sculpture by Blaž Vehovar. Graduate of Venetian Academy of Fine Arts acts within a group of young artists who have taken on the name of CYP2C9.

Opening programme featured Mojca Menoni (violin) and Martin Sikur (cello)
Opening speech had been delivered by Simona Lupšina from Krško Municipality.
