Forum Ljubljana's activities are rooted in the alternative culture of the 1980s, actually a successor of the ŠKD Forum which was active in the end of the 60s. In 1994, however, Forum Ljubljana was established as a non-governmental cultural institution for artistic and cultural production.

The production company covers various forms of contemporary art, multimedia and new media and consists of several sections, including the multimedia art group Strip Core, the publisher of Stripburger magazine. Forum Ljubljana has produced several new media projects, and has recently engaged in the production of interdisciplinary projects for children, which link comics producers, puppeteers (Nebo Puppet Theatre), and new technologies. Its film production unit that initially produced art video films, has produced a line of awarded long-feature films.


Multimedia production and comics

The activities of the multimedia art group Strip Core, which produces the Lighting Guerrilla Festival and publishes the Stripburger magazine, are described in separate articles.

Film production

Along with the publishing of comics (cf. Strip Core and Stripburger), another thriving aspect of Forum Ljubljana is its film production section. After producing several videos and multimedia installations (primarily by Slovene multimedia artist Ema Kugler) and some animation (Let'ssss Go, 2002, directed by Kolja Saksida), Forum Ljubljana produced the full-length feature film The Suburbs [Predmestje] (2003) by Vinko Möderndorfer, a social drama about the rise of xenophobia and nationalism, based on his novel of the same name. The film was funded by the Slovene Film Fund and Viba Film Studio and co-produced by Vertigo/Emotionfilm, Radio-Television Slovenia (RTV Slovenia) and Video Production Kregar Studio (VPK Studio).

In 2007 Forum Ljubljana produced a new feature-length film, Landscape no. 2 [Pokrajina št. 2], again directed by Vinko Möderndorfer. The film about the haunting relics of World War II was funded by the Slovene Film Fund and Serbian Film Centre and co-produced by VPK Studio, RTV Slovenia and Delirium Film. The film was the Slovene candidate for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and was shown at film festivals throughout the world (Pula Film Festival, Brooklyn International Film Festival, Copenhagen International Film Festival, Philadelphia Film Festival, and many others).

In 2014 Vinko Möderndorfer completed his fourth feature film Inferno, which "addresses a concrete social and political situation, in which the world has found itself because of the gluttonous, insatiable global capitalist monstrosity."
