updated 2 hours ago
V zaključnem obdobju Ustvarjalne Evrope (2021–2027) in v času, ko se na evropski ravni oblikuje nov program financiranja za kulturne in ustvarjalne sektorje, AgoraEU, je pravi trenutek, da se ozremo nazaj na izkušnje, dosežke in premike, ki jih je mednarodno sodelovanje v evropskih projektih omogočilo slovenskim organizacijam. Ambasadorji Ustvarjalne Evrope, ki prihajajo iz različnih organizacij in ustvarjalnih sektorjev, vendar jim je skupno aktivno udejstvovanje v mednarodnem prostoru, so z nami delili svoje bogate izkušnje in poglede. Raznoliki prispevki osvetljujejo specifične poti organizacij, hkrati pa razodevajo globlje vpoglede v razvoj umetniških praks, institucionalnih modelov in kulturnega ekosistema v Sloveniji.
Urša Strehar Benčina in Bjanka Kršmanc v svojem prispevku osvetljujeta, kako je Pionirski dom z vztrajnostjo, samoevalvacijo in razvijanjem tesnih in zanesljivih odnosov vstopal v mednarodni prostor. Njuna izkušnja poudarja pomen dolgoročnih partnerstev pri razvoju organizacije. Vabljeni k branju njunega prispevka, zapise drugih ambasadorjev pa lahko preberete tukaj.

Res Nullius
updated 31 hours ago
With a pedigree of over 20 years and a continuously well-received musical output, Res Nullius have firmly established themselves as one of the best live rock acts in Slovenia. Formed in 1991 and since then consistently playing non compromising music, the band has never strived for either commercial success or taken any other pragmatical course in music making. As a result, they have altogether released only 5 albums, each fast inscribing itself into the Slovene collective rock consciousness.
