The peak of this year\u2019s summer season will be diverse<\/strong>, internationally<\/strong> and locally oriented<\/strong> as well as playful and fun<\/strong>. In the second half of August, the Piran Coastal Galleries will introduce themselves in Norway with a big international exhibition<\/strong>, while at the end of summer, Piran will see a rich cultural programme of the traditional EX-TEMPORE PIRAN<\/strong>, which has been running in this picturesque town uninterruptedly for more than half a century.<\/p>\n

Until the end of August, in Piran you can visit two popular exhibits: PANORAMA:<\/strong> A<\/strong> selection from the art fond of the Piran Coastal Galleries<\/strong> in the Piran Town Gallery (until 21 August 2022<\/strong>) and NA DRUGI STRANI\/ON THE OTHER SIDE by DANIELA DANICA TEPE\u0160<\/strong> in the Monfort Gallery in Portoro\u017e (until 21 August 2022<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

As announced, a special place in this year\u2019s exhibition programme is occupied by the international group exhibition with the suggestive title (EVERYTHING IS) NOT WHAT IT SEEMS (NE TAKO, KOT SE ZDI)<\/strong>, which will be hosted by the NITJA Centre for Contemporary Art, Lillestr\u00f8m\/Oslo<\/strong> from 20 August to 25 September 2022.
The project is a co-production of NITJA (Centre for Contemporary Art) from Norway,<\/strong> the renowned<\/strong> Arts Council Norway institution<\/strong>, and the Piran Coastal Galleries<\/strong>. At the invitation of the NITJA centre, the exhibition was conceived and designed by a visiting curator Mara Ambro\u017ei\u010d Verderber<\/strong>, the director of the Piran Coastal Galleries. It includes a selection of artworks of sixteen international artists established on the world art scene: Primo\u017e Bizjak <\/strong>(Slovenia), Vincent Ceraudo <\/strong>(France), Nemanja Cvijanovi\u0107 <\/strong>(Croatia), Andrea Fraser <\/strong>(USA), Meta Grgurevic\u030c <\/strong>(Slovenia), Anawana Haloba <\/strong>(Zambia\/Norway), Einat Cohen <\/strong>(Israel), Corinne Mazzoli <\/strong>(Italy), Ane Mette Hol <\/strong>(Norway), Emil Memon <\/strong>(Slovenia\/USA), Hanna Filomen Mj\u00e5vatn <\/strong>(Norway) & Kira Senkpiel <\/strong>(Germany), Nika Neelova <\/strong>(Great Britain), Kathryn Smith <\/strong>(South Africa), Andrej S\u030ckufca <\/strong>(Slovenia), Lu\u010dka \u0160parovec <\/strong>(Slovenia), and Robert Watts <\/strong>(USA). The concept of the exhibition revolves around questions and themes that study what is happening on the other side of the visible reality of things. It will present works comprising everything from new technologies to high-tech sculptures, and from kinetics to film and photography, and offer the spectator an experience that is scientific, witty, beautiful, and accessible to the wider public at the same time. The exhibition includes a series of artworks from the public art collection of the Piran Coastal Galleries<\/strong> and other collections (UGM Maribor, Noire Foundation Turin, the NGH Collection, Menge\u0161, and others). Next year, the exhibition will also be hosted by the Piran Coastal Galleries. For more info click here\u2026<\/a><\/p>\n
