1280pxAlkatraz Gallery, established in 1996 as an artist run space, located in Metelkova mesto Autonomous Cultural Zone, Ljubljana
Initially, KUD Mreža Association was primarily engaged in visual arts projects at Metelkova, but also functioned as a formal vehicle for various other initiatives that were active there. Its predecessor was, in a way, 'Mreža za Metelkovo' (The Network for Metelkova), a collective that worked to establish and coordinate this autonomous cultural centre in the first place.
In 2000, together with the Society for the Protection of Atheistic Feelings (DZAČ), KUD Mreža founded Menza pri koritu, a very active Metelkova venue that hosts concerts, poetry evenings, various workshops, trainings (circus, stage technique, etc) and many other events. As of 2015, the association is not running the place any more.
KUD Mreža operates the Alkatraz Gallery, where contemporary art exhibitions, performances and installations take place, and the adjacent AAsylum Studio, which hosts artists invited to its Artist-in-Residence project. The latter was launched in 2006 and - mor than 20 residentsm from japan, sputh africa
Another KUD Mreža run gallery is the very special Night Window Display Gallery Pešak, which displays its works behind the windows on the second floor of one of Metelkova buildings. The artworks can consequently only be seen by way of a telescope, set on a nearby tower.
