Together with the Centre for Tourist Promotion and the Event Centre the Celeia Institute - Centre for Contemporary Arts forms part of the new municipal institution established in 2005. The Centre for Contemporary Arts manages the Celje Gallery of Contemporary Art and the adjacent Hodnik Gallery, Likovni salon Celje, Račka Gallery, and the Pelikan tower at the Celje Castle, specialised on the photography. Centre for Contemporary Arts was also the first art institution in Slovenia that systematically introduced the artist-in-residence activities in its programme.


Mission

The Centre for Contemporary Arts initiates, develops and promotes contemporary visual arts in the local, regional and international context, as well as re-articulates and re-contextualizes the heritage of local conceptual and post-conceptual practices that make the foundations of the Centre's activity.

Situated only one hour from the capital city of Ljubljana, and being one of the most representative institutions for the production and display of contemporary visual arts in the Štajerska region, the Centre represents a creative hub devoted to arts, culture and theory, as experienced in the specific conditions of current social, political, and economic situation. Under the auspices of the City Council of Celje and its Cultural Department, the Centre has been actively engaged in the project-based cultural programming in cooperation with the partners across the region and beyond.

Programme

Although each of the venues has a focused curated programme, the Centre for Contemporary Arts occasionally orchestrates a larger contemporary arts event in Celje. One of the first international curated exhibitions on a larger scale was The Male [Moški] curated by Irena Čerčnik and Nevenka Šivavec in 2001.

In the Summer 2008 the Image of the Space [Podoba prostora] exhibition was presented in the Celje Gallery of Contemporary Art and in the Likovni salon Celje. The complex project in two parts exhibited more than 50 artists from the Celje region and exposed the importance of their geographical and cultural context. It was developed by the house curator Alenka Domjan in the cooperation with the guest curators Petra Kapš, Mojca Puncer, and Milena Koren Božiček.

In 2010 the first part of another complex survey exhibition took place in several Centre's venues as well as in the Roman lapidary of the Celje Regional Museum and the Celje Central Library. Sculpture Today was dedicated to the contemporary Slovene sculpture and curated by the art historians Alenka Domjan and Tomaž Brejc, as well as the artists Polona Tratnik and Jiri Kočica, thus enabling diverse approaches and broadening of the notion of sculpture as a medium in 21st century.
