Established in 1996, the Muzeum Institute is a non-for-profit institution (zavod) for art production, distribution and publishing. The organisation developed out of Muzeum Theatre, a conceptual theatre company under the direction of Barbara Novakovič Kolenc, which remains the core of its activities. Between 1993 and 2000 she conceived and directed five stage performances: Cricket in the Fist, Lo Scrittore, Emilija, The Girl and the Double Bass and Paracelsus & Frankenstein, each of them exploring individual fields of art, namely fine art, architecture, dance, music and movement. The subsequent synthesis performance All Together Now was staged at the Slovene National Theatre (SNG) Ljubljana - Opera and Ballet, featuring a cast of actors from an old people's home. In 2000 Muzeum Theatre launched the Project 1-5 series of performances, with creative talents from different fields - architecture, dance, theory, lighting design and visual arts - being involved for the first time as stage directors. Muzeum Theatre productions have been presented in Austria, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Mongolia, Croatia, Albania, Armenia and Italy. Some performances were staged in gallery spaces, for example the 2004 production Rodin (directed by Boris Mihalj). In Autumn 2006 Muzeum Theatre presented two productions: Molière was premiered within the framework of the Ex Ponto International Festival, and Rodin II was performed at Stara Elektrarna - Old Power Station and subsequently presented also at the Mladi levi Festival and around Slovenia. In December 2007 Muzeum Theatre presented A Winter's Tale, based on the play by Shakespeare.


The Muzeum Institute actively engages in visual arts projects. In 2002-2003 it presented the auteur fine art projects Talking House - Theory Open I, II, III: The Shirt of Saint Francis at the Museum of Modern Art, Saint Lazarus at the City Gallery, Ljubljana and Saint Teresa at Kapelica Gallery, all conceived by Barabara Novakovič Kolenc. Muzeum has also produced various international visual arts projects, notably Map to Paradise from Ljubljana (2000), a site-specific installation at Ljubljana Castle by Peter Greenaway, and the accompanying Peter Greenaway film retrospective of the same year. In 2005 the Muzeum Institute participated in the international co-curatorial and multidisciplinary project Continental Breakfast; the Ljubljana component of the project was entitled Memory (W)hole and comprised an international symposium, a site-specific exhibition and art performances at Ljubljana Castle. New variants of the Memory (W)hole exhibition were subsequently presented at the Skopje Museum of Modern Art in Macedonia and at the Museum of Contemporary Arts in Banja Luka. In 2007 an international exhibition entitled Paperwork was presented at the City Museum of Ljubljana.

Besides theatre and visual arts projects the Muzeum Institute has also been involved in a number of cultural policy projects (eg Mobile Theatre Network and Loops) and in publishing activities. Since 2000 Muzeum has published the Muzeum Newsletter. Other publications have included Mobile Theatre Network - Strategies for Establishing Distribution Networks for Independent Performing Arts in Central and Eastern Europe (a symposium in 1999), Peter Greenaway's Book (a book of theoretical texts by Slovene authors on the work of Peter Greenaway), Peter Greenaway: Map to Paradise from Ljubljana (a book of documents) and the Memory (W)hole - Continental Breakfast Ljubljana exhibition catalogue. The Museum Institute is a member of the Informal European Theatre Meeting (IETM).
