− | Established in [[Established::1993]], the [[Celje Gallery of Contemporary Art]] is situated on the fringes of the old town centre and is part of the architectural complex of buildings that once formed the foothill castle of the Counts of Celje. Since 2005 it is managed by the [[Celeia Institute - Centre for Contemporary Arts]] as its principal exhibiting space. The venue hosts up to 10 exhibitions annually addressing specific themes or offering a thorough monographic presentation of individual artistic positions. The adjacent small Hodnik (Corridor) Gallery features a lively programme of short-termed (even less than a week) presentations by emerging artists from the region. The exhibitions are usually prepared by the house curators although the Centre collaborates also with foreign experts and offers a working platform for guest curators through its [[AiR Celeia Celje]] programme. | + | Established in [[Established::1993]], the [[Celje Gallery of Contemporary Art]] is situated on the fringes of the old town centre and is part of the architectural complex of buildings that once formed the foothill castle of the Counts of Celje.

Many exhibitions in the Celje Gallery of Contemporary extend to other venues managed by gthe Celeia Institute - Centre for Contemporary Arts. Concerning group exhibitions, the Gallery is practising the systematic approach to the topics and different kind of phenomenon and is usually preparing shows, where national and international artists are mixed - like in the show Prohibited Death in 2009, where the work of five Slovene artists of different generations was exhibited with foreign art positions including Zuzanna Janin, Teresa Margolles, Eleonore Phillips, Kate Pollard, etc.
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.
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.
