Mission and objectives

The Slovenian Culture and Information Centre in Vienna was established by the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Culture. Its purpose is to create a synergy among Slovene institutions and organisations and Austrian cultural institutions, producers and venues, to foster cooperation efforts, and to facilitate communication. Thus SKICA should become a central forum and a representative of Slovene cultural, education, and scientific activities in Austria as well as a catalyst of new international projects.

SKICA endeavours to promote its cultural programme while focusing on building a multidisciplinary approach from all study fields and art disciplines. Outlined annually, the SKICA programme consists of a few complex projects that are developed in close cooperation with Slovene cultural organisations and Austrian partners, and a number of smaller promotional support projects. SKICA also supports the artist-in-residence programme in Vienna organised by the Slovene Ministry of Culture.

Slovene writers of the younger generation Goran Vojnovic, Katja Perat, Nejc Gazvoda, Nataša Kramberger, Anja Golob, Jure Jakob, Vesna Lemaić, and Klemen Pisk were presented in spring and autum 2012 to broad audiences at a well-know literary venue Literaturhaus Wien.

In the framework of the designforum Wien 2013 the exhibition Silent Revolutions, presenting Slovene product design of the last two decades, took place at the Museumsquartier, while the Vienna Design Week hosted the workshop Dementia and Arthritis.
