two generation of artists
The Gallery stimulates the development of new ways of expression in classical and new media, facilitates artists' work under creative conditions both at home and internationally, and fosters co-operation between producers, galleries and festivals.
Ganes Pratt Gallery (opened in 2006) works with young contemporary artists. Not only do we present them, but also try to take part in production of their studio and project practice at home and abroad. The artists we represent are radical, but not in the form of ruminating about the changes that had happened in the turbulent past of Eastern European countries. Their research in various media is turned towards the visual, sonic and tactile, the exploration in the state of artistic media today and their insertion in the realm of the public imbued with capitalist consumerism.

Programme
The 2006 programme of the Gallery included Bad Girls & Bad Boys, a group exhibition of artists represented by the gallery which was also presented at the City Gallery, Ljubljana. Other projects included Let's Put an End to All Disasters, a follow-up to a project by Jaša at the Sarajevo Winter Festival realised in co-operation with Festival Ljubljana; a solo exhibition by Urša Vidic; and a project by Išvan Išt Huzjan. Ganes Pratt Gallery also presented the Cocktail Problem by Meta Grgurevič and Jaša in the international festival of installations OPEN06 at the Lido in Venice.
The 2007 programme of the Gallery commenced with a presentation of work by Meta Grgurevič in relation to the exhibition Radical Chic by Jaša at nearby Equrna Gallery. The project Check Point by Jaša in Ištvan Išt Huzjan was subsequently organised in co-operation with Kapelica Gallery at a number of festivals, including the Archipelag-Archipelago Festival, Nova Gorica and Gorizia, and Jaša's project Keep On Waving Your Guns was presented as part of a site-specific installation realised in co-operation with ProstoRož - FlowerSpace Association. In March 2007 Jasmina Čibic (who studied at Goldmiths College in London) was presented in Slovenia for the first time at the Gallery, and Viktor Bernik, Sašo Vrabič, Mark Požlep and Simona Settimo from Italy also showed their new work here.
