Projects
3via has produced numerous projects by Marija Mojca Pungerčar. Her work has a strong documentary character and engages various media: installation, video, performance etc. A website project called Safe House featuring material collected during her residency in New York City, Outside My Door, Dresscode and A Story of Shoes (conceived together with Veronika Klančnik), Special Offer, Stereo-Visions, Socialdress, Singer, Brotherhood and Unity (at Simulaker Gallery) and Socialdress per Running Metre (many projects were staged in various public places or exhibited at P74 Centre and Gallery) are among her outstanding projects produced by 3via Art Association.
Borut Savski is an intermedia artist working in the domain of concepts and contexts, especially in connection with sound (and sound objects) as a metaphor. His artistic installations are more conceptually orientated, such as intermedia projects The Oracle, The Dancer (with Stefan Doepner), Basic Questions and Videographics.
In 2006 an international exchange project Intermediate Spaces Graz - Ljubljana initiated by 3via (Ljubljana), ESC (Graz) and Kapelica Gallery (Ljubljana) was organised.
Publishing
3via Art Association is trying to introduce the term publishing to the intermedia and multimedia art with the project Trivia Records (2007). They aim to overcome the limitations in accessibility of non-commercial works of art so that creativity would easily reach a wider audience and the next generations. Trivia Records functions as an inter-media archive, publisher, online classroom and shop. Their offer can be divided into four areas: Trivia Audio/Video, Trivia Prints, DIY instructions and Trivia Products produced by members of 3via Art Association. Most of the Audio/Video can be downloaded for free, such as sets of recordings from evening sessions at Cirkulacija 2 place at Tovarna Rog and Milan Kristl's Bandura Kejti in Ti (2004). The products include Marija Mojca Pungerčar's Mortality Table, an art project in the form of a thematic chocolate bar an her book How Has Art History Changed published in December 2010, Milena Kosec's Pocket-sized State and MK and many others. The marketing strategy of the Trivia Records distribution channels provided by the world wide web, and the editions are targeted both at the local and international art markets.
Performances and exhibitions
Newly composed Slovene folk songs were performed by Bogdana Herman and Borut Savski at Kazemate gallery at Ljubljana Castle in September 2011, on Sajeta festival in Tolmin in 2010 etc. Newly composed Slovene folk songs present contemporary use of folk songs patterns and produce a dramatic tension.
Pieces from the series Strained structures by Borut Savski were presented at Device_art exhibition in Tokyo, Japan in 2010, within the Robot Museum exhibition in Maribor, in Trubar Literature House in 2011 and in Metropolis gallery on Kersnikova where visitors could see a cybernetic structure Tree of Knowledge in January 2012. The interactive sculpture Orakelj II by Borut Savski was presented in Likovni salon Celje as part of a project by Petra Kapš.
