==Collection==
Nova Gorica City Gallery engages in solo and group exhibitions of established Slovene artists and artist groups as well as international exhibitions curated by Slovene and guest curators, presenting up to 10 exhibitions each year. The gallery's exhibition programme includes all genres of contemporary art; projects are selected according to their quality, their originality of ideas, and their achievements in relation to contemporary art movements. The gallery seeks to present a complex, quality-based view of the Slovene and foreign artistic production, as well as paying attention to artists from the area of Nova Gorica.
 
  
==Exhibitions==
+
In addition to the programme of exhibitions, in 2000 the Gallery started to build its collection of the artists who had exhibited at the Gallery. The collection's central core is the contemporary painting while at the same time it diversifies into other media, including recent explorations.
The year 2008 saw a rich programme of solo exhibitions by Aleksij Kobal, Lujo Vodopivec, and Bojan Štokelj. Notable group exhibitions included ''Aesthetics of the New Millennium'' (Selected Works of Slovenian Contemporary Art from the City Gallery Collection): Uršula Berlot, Viktor Bernik, Miha Boljka, Boštjan Drinovec, Arjan Pregl, Primož Pugelj, Miha Štrukelj, Sašo Vrabič) and a multimedia exhibition entitled ''Data Collision'' of Hans H. Diebner, Florian Grond, BridA, Dragan Živadinov.

In 2009, the group exhibition ''Eros Kalos'' curated by Brane Kovič featured erotic motives in 38 graphic and photographic works of such world-renowned artists as Nobuyoshi Araki, Nan Goldin, André Masson, Helmut Newton, Pablo Picasso, Man Ray – Emmanuel Rudnitsky, Pierre-Auguste Renior, Egon Schiele, Jeanloup Sieff, Miroslav Šutej, Shu Takahashi, Sam Taylor-Wood, Andy Warhol, and Tom Wesselmann.
+
Within this broad concept, a central place is occupied by the generation of artists that came of age in the second half of the 1990s and have already been recognised in institutional circles of Slovenian and international contemporary art. Thus the collection is one of the most important ones in Slovenia.  
  
The 2010 line-up of solo exhibitions include Slovene artists Duša Jesih, Mitja Ficko, and Roberto Kusterle as well as a group exhibition entitled ''Wild in Heart'' featuring Aleksij Kobal, Silvester Plotajs Sicoe, Jurij Kalan and Mirko Bratuša.
+
The works from the collection are occasionally exhibited, as in 2008, when the gallery prepared a group show from the collection entitled the ''Aesthetics of the New Millennium – Selected Works of Slovene Contemporary Art''. The exhibition concentrated on the members of a strong generation of artists who graduated from the Ljubljana [[Academy of Fine Arts and Design|Academy of Fine Arts]] during the mid-1990s, and have made significant contributions to contemporary Slovenian painting and sculpture: painters [[Viktor Bernik]], [[Miha Boljka]], [[Uršula Berlot]], [[Arjan Pregl]], [[Miha Štrukelj]], and [[Sašo Vrabič]], and the two sculptors, [[Boštjan Drinovec]] and [[Primož Pugelj]].

All the works in the collection are well-documented on the gallery's website.
As well as mounting exhibitions, Nova Gorica City Gallery is the site of various talks on contemporary visual arts, fine arts workshops for children, and guided exhibition tours for the public.  
 
  
The gallery also runs interdisciplinary programmes and concerts, and is the co-presenter of and main venue for the [[Pixxelpoint International Festival of Computer Art]], which saw its 10th edition in 2009.

Founded in 1997, the Nova Gorica City Gallery has since developed into one of the most high-profile contemporary arts spaces in the Goriška region. Known for its specific circular shape with a 361-square-metre space, the gallery represents a special creative challenge for artists, and enables a very personal experience of the artworks. All that also reflects the exhibition of the Pixxelpoint International Festival of Computer Art, which has been organised by the Nova Gorica City Gallery since 2000. The venue also hosts various talks on contemporary visual arts, fine arts workshops for children, and guided exhibition tours for the public.


Founded within the premises of the Slovene National Theatre Nova Gorica and initially operating under the auspices of the Goriška Museum, in 2000 the management of the Nova Gorica City Gallery was transferred to the Nova Gorica Arts Centre.

Programme and mission

Beside the organisation of the Pixxelpoint International Festival of Computer Art, the Nova Gorica City Gallery features up to 10 exhibitions per year prepared by its house curators and frequently by guest curators of national and sometimes international origins. Solo and group exhibitions embrace all genres of contemporary art; projects are selected according to their quality, their originality of ideas, and their achievements in relation to contemporary art movements. The gallery tends to present a complex, quality-based view of the Slovene and international artistic production, as well as to focus upon artists from the area of Nova Gorica.

Collection

In addition to the programme of exhibitions, in 2000 the Gallery started to build its collection of the artists who had exhibited at the Gallery. The collection's central core is the contemporary painting while at the same time it diversifies into other media, including recent explorations.

Within this broad concept, a central place is occupied by the generation of artists that came of age in the second half of the 1990s and have already been recognised in institutional circles of Slovenian and international contemporary art. Thus the collection is one of the most important ones in Slovenia.

The works from the collection are occasionally exhibited, as in 2008, when the gallery prepared a group show from the collection entitled the Aesthetics of the New Millennium – Selected Works of Slovene Contemporary Art. The exhibition concentrated on the members of a strong generation of artists who graduated from the Ljubljana Academy of Fine Arts during the mid-1990s, and have made significant contributions to contemporary Slovenian painting and sculpture: painters Viktor Bernik, Miha Boljka, Uršula Berlot, Arjan Pregl, Miha Štrukelj, and Sašo Vrabič, and the two sculptors, Boštjan Drinovec and Primož Pugelj.

All the works in the collection are well-documented on the gallery's website.
