The thematic group exhibitions often tackle controversial issues and include international artists. In 2001 Irena Čerčnik and Nevenka Šivavec curated The Male [Moški], featuring works of 17 artists including Vlasta Delimar, Kutluğ Ataman, Marija Mojca Pungerčar, Eclipse, and Zoran Naskovski. The provocative concept derived from the gap between the internationally acclaimed post-feminist theories and the lack of gender-related or feminist art in the local context.
The Prohibited Death [Prepovedana smrt] curated by Irena Čerčnik in 2009 presented the work of 12 artists of different generations including Jože Barši, Nika Autor, Goran Bertok, Teresa Margolles, Eleonore Phillips, Kate Pollard, etc.
The Okolje Consulting
Solo shows are usually dedicated to artist connected with the town. In 2009 the gallery presented works of Slovene artists of middle and older generation like Stane Jagodič, Marjan Krošl, and Marijan Tršar.
Solo recent presentations includes Borut Holland, Željko Opačak, Bojana Križanec, etc.
The Gallery hosts also creative workshops for children and youth, as well as the so-called 'student premieres'. Students and graduates of fine arts academies get a chance to present their work to the public for the first time, gain their first experience in the public sphere and their first references.
Many exhibitions in the Celje Gallery of Contemporary extend to other venues managed by the Celeia Institute - Centre for Contemporary Arts.
Besides the exhibition programme, the Celje Gallery of Contemporary Art collects works of contemporary Slovene visual arts. The permanent exhibition has gradually grown; at first it was contributed to by important Slovene artists, later on it has been regularly expanded with work by artists who either live in the Celje region, are natives of the city or otherwise connected with the town. The gallery currently possesses over 200 works. They are occasionally presented to the public within group thematic exhibitions.
