Founded in 1994, the France Mihelič Gallery, Škofja Loka permanently exhibits 59 art pieces of painter, graphic and illustrator France Mihelič (1907–1998), who is especially known on his expressionistic and phantasmagoria visual language. Art works were donated by artist in memory of the native Virmaše and early childhood years, which he had spent in Škofja Loka. The Gallery is administrated by the Loka Museum, Škofja Loka and open for visitors by previous notice.


About artist

France Mihelič stands as the most distinctive and original Slovenian master of fantastic art and as one of the main representatives of Slovenian partisan art. He studied painting at ALU (Academy of Fine Arts) in Zagreb (1927–1931), where he was strongly influenced by the Zagreb group Zemlja. In 1945 he became a professor at Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana, where he had been teaching until his retirement in 1970.

Exhibition

Two floors of the Gallery host the artist's work from the postwar period, mainly from the 1960s and 1970s, which represent Mihelič's very productive creative period. Through the original iconography Mihelič's world of fiction tells stories, filled with dream-like visions, metamorphoses, but also melancholy, imbued with existential questions about birth, death, dying... On display are some of his most recognisible motifs of famous 'kurent', musicians, and also mythological scenes, which he always like to form with passion. The work is distinguished for its exquisite drawing through which the author's sense for the authentic grotesque and caricature is revealed.
