Exhibition
________________

Event will be held in Slovene.

Organised by: Ljubljana Pride Association in collaboration with the Municipality of Ljubljana

We welcome you to the opening event of the art exhibition International Queer Solidarity: Images of Resilience and Hope. With this exhibition we want to stimulate reflection, awareness and consciousness of the important role of international queer solidarity in the lives of LGBTIQ+ people in the most vulnerable situations and places in Europe and all around the world. It is important for us to create spaces for artistic and cultural expression that give hope even in the face of the harsh realities of war and other forms of oppression faced by LGBTIQ+ communities. We want to create spaces that empower us to continue our struggle and strengthen our collective resilience.

The exhibition will be on display until June 29th in the Right Atrium of the Ljubljana City Hall. We also cordially invite you to visit the second part of the exhibition in the Alkatraz Gallery (AKC Metelkova mesto).

Exhibiting artists: Aleksandar Crnogorac (Serbia), Katarina Babič Derenda (Slovenia), Hassan Dib – Queen of Virginity (Lebanon, Germany), Francesco Giordano (Germany), Sandra Grbić (Serbia), Edvinas Grinkevičius (Lithuania), Oleksandr Halishchuk (Austria), Nuka Horvat (Slovenia) and Meta Mežan (Slovenia, UK).

Curator: Iris Pokovec
