Unfinished Modernisations conference, coorganised by TrajekT, Institute for Spatial Culture and Maribor Art Gallery
TrajekT has organised several architectural exhibitions, seminars and workshops, including TraktaT, Architectural Jury in years 2007 and 2008, a workshop on writing architectural critique as analysis of sociological, political, economic, environmental and technical impacts of city development. The seminar consisted of lectures from leading theorists and writers on architecture and built environment – Adam Budak (Kunsthaus Graz, Austria), Stojan Pelko (Korpus Ljubljana, Slovenia) and Bojana Kunst (Maska Institute, Slovenia).
Supported by the Culture 2007-2013 programme of the European Commission – EACEA, the project Unfinished Modernisations – Between Utopia and Pragmatism is a long-term collaborative platform of six organizations from four countries: TrajekT and Maribor Art Gallery (Slovenia), the Croatian Architects’ Association and the Institute for Contemporary Architecture (Croatia), the Belgrade Architects Society (Serbia), and the Coalition for Sustainable Development (Former Republic of Macedonia). Their goal is to research and disseminate knowledge about the production and use of built environment in South Eastern Europe and to foster trans-national collaboration and mobility of architects, planners, artists, and urban activists, within the region and in the broader European context.
Since 2008 TrajekT is working on the project PoLok with partners Institute for Policies of Space – IPoP, and the Community-Based Natural Resource Management Network (CBNRM Net). The aim of the project is to bring together people that participate actively in the creation of inhabitant-friendly neighbourhoods. The project is supported by a grant through the EEA Financial Mechanism (supported by Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) and the Norwegian Financial Mechanism.
Among other achievements is a review of Slovene architecture and urbanism presented as the online Architectural Guide, a project Evidence and Valorization of Slovene Modern Architecture in Years 1945-70, and a survey of degraded areas in Ljubljana Location.Info. The research project of POT / PATH as the largest public green space in Ljubljana was published in a book in 2006, confirming the importance of the recreational footpath around Ljubljana in the context of Ljubljana green space system, and revealing some of the possibilities for its improvement.
