In November 2017, the Centre for Creativity held a Kick-off Conference at MAO.

The Centre for Creativity or CzK (Center za kreativnost) was established in 2017, as an interdisciplinary platform to support Slovenia's cultural and creative sector (CCS). It operates under the auspices of the Museum of Architecture and Design (MAO) in Ljubljana. In 2018 a project office was also established in Maribor.

The platform CzK is co-financed by the EU European Regional Development Fund and the Republic of Slovenia in the period 2017–2022.


Mission

The Centre for Creativity focuses on architecture, design, art, heritage and other areas of CCS and promotes cross-sectoral cooperation. It encourages integration between CCS, companies and other sectors – cooperation between private, government and non-government sectors, science, education, tourism and different creative groups and individuals. The project also enables MAO to provide an important part of the supportive environment for innovation in Slovenia.

Background

The Centre for Creativity has grown out of the goals of the Slovenian National Culture Programme (NPK), and also follows the goals of the Slovenian Smart Specialization Strategy (S4). In addition, the CzK can be seen as a complement to MAO's mission, as it has evolved out of the museum's programme and related projects in the last seven years, particularly in relation to the desire to realise more process-related and cross-sector projects that began during the 24th Biennial of Design (BIO 50) in 2014. At that time, the entire structure of the BIO was transformed from a product-oriented exhibition to a more process-oriented, community enriching experience and production platform.

Activities

Projects and activities that have helped pave the way for the CzK, include the travelling exhibition Silent Revolutions – Contemporary Design in Slovenia, the film series Small and Smart – Expressions of Contemporary Slovenian Architecture in Film, and MAO's roles as the Commissioner of the Slovenian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale and as the project leader of the Creative Europe funded Future Architecture Platform (see MAO).

CzK promotes the development of projects that take shape at the intersection of art, culture, experiments, the market, entrepreneurship and the business sector, and which employ creativity, production and the distribution of goods and services that bring or express culture-related or otherwise creative content. The results of these projects are commercially viable, they increase added value and are aimed at addressing specific social issues, facilitating social progress and welfare. CzK serves to intensify and integrate relevant sources of support for innovations in Slovenia.
