The city of Maribor won the prestigious European Capital of Culture title in 2008 with an ambitious regional proposal that mobilised 5 partner cities in Slovenia (Murska Sobota, Ptuj, Slovenj Gradec, Novo mesto and Velenje). Some of the programme will be coorganised with the Portuguese town of Guimarães, another European Capital of Culture in 2012.



Infrastructural investments

The seat of the Maribor 2012 Public Institute is situated in the recently renovated Vetrinje Mansion (Naskov dvorec) in the very heart of the city. The architects Maruša Zorec and Matjaž Bolčina won the 2010 Piranesi Award for its renovation.

For 2012 the City of Maribor gives the leading position to the new Maribor Cultural Centre (MAKS) or "Terminal 12", which is to be erected on the grounds of the former knitting factory in the Studenci area. The plans for this edifice with its 2-multi-purpose halls for 650 visitors each were made by Sadar-Vuga Arhitekti.

Programme

The programme of the Cultural Capital of Europe 2012 highlights the performances by the so-called Maribor Directing School (Tomaž Pandur, Jernej Lorenci, Matjaž Latin, and Sebastijan Horvat) in the MAKS Centre. It will, however, also include inventive urban projects such as "social ecology" or "militant research" in the suburbs and a new installation of the Maribor Regional Museum's permanent collection.

The partner cities have already announced some of the highlights in their programmes. The Ptuj Regional Museum prepares the 4th World Congress of Archaeologists. Slovenj Gradec plans the opening of the museum and documentation centre of the Austrian composer Hugo Wolf and an ambitious performance based on his lieder, accompanied by the first international workshop on classical solo singing. The city will also produce the Peace Festival "From People to the People" and collaborate with the Herman Potočnik Noordung Memorial Centre in Vitanje on contemporary visual arts production.

The international programming in 2012 is going to be supported also by cultural centres located in Slovenia, for instance the Goethe-Institut Ljubljana.
