The creative collective is today formed by Žiga Aljaž, Aleš Arnež, Miha Artnak, Žiga Artnak, Tibor Kranjc, Jurij Lozič, Petar Perčič, Marko Potočnik, and Filip Burburan. Their work ranges from graffiti, stencils and illustrations, to logos, posters, and corporate identity, including the identity of the 28th [[Ljubljana International Biennial of Graphic Art]]. The pioneers of Slovene street art, whose public interventions rather amuse than shock, have participated in several exhibitions and graffiti jams around Europe. Some of their work is collected in their book ''Now I Exist'', other featured in several publications, such ah Los Logos, Stickeraward, Graphotism, and Concrete magazine. |

Projects
Leaving fingerprints also in the Bronx, the ZEK graffiti interventions range from legal to illegal work. In January 2010 they performed a graffiti action, painting three billboards in the centre of Ljubljana for the promotion of the movie Sin nombre, at the time showing at the Kinodvor Cinema. Exceptional in many ways, the ZEK Crew not only constantly invents new ways of advertising, and performs witty actions, but also takes part in various projects, such as Zvezda nogavice project by a graphic designer Gaja Mežnarič Osole and a fashion designer Marina-Eva Maletin, presenting new line of the ZEK SUCKS socks in all shapes and sizes. Recycled from spray cans, the unique lights were made for the Lighting Guerrilla Festival competition. The Strip Generator, an award winning interactive online comic creation tool, was created in collaboration with the 3FS Studio, whose office walls ZEK designed with the use of black and white stickers. The interior was awarded as well.
Exhibitions
The ZEK Crew have participated at several exhibitions abroad, naming only the Biennial For Young Artists in Bari, Puglia, and the Belgrade Design Week. From March until June 2010 the Slovenian embassy in Washington DC hosted the exhibition of the ZEK collective. For the 2010 exhibition of the Slovene Designers Society members Oblikobranje, where some of their own works were presented, they conceived the billboard project as well. The crew furthermore participated at the Biennial of Independent Illustrators, and exhibited at the International Centre of Graphic Arts, Ljubljana. In September 2009 works by ZEK were showcased at the Avla NLB Gallery, Ljubljana. The exhibition was organised by Emzin Institute of Creative Production.
Awards
The project for the Trnfest Festival was awarded the Golden Award in the category outdoor advertising, and the Grand Award at the 19. Slovene Advertising Festival (SOF). The Trnfest poster also won both the Brumen Award in the category Ad campaigns, and the Brumen Grand Prix at the 4th Biennial of Slovene Visual Communications. The graphic design of the 3FS interior was awarded the DOS winter recognition 2009, bestowed by the Slovene Designers Society.
