Background
The venue is located at the premises of the Maribor textile factory MTT, which had been closed in the 90s and since then remained unused. Its vast grounds were opened during the time when Maribor was the European Capital of Culture 2012 and it was first initiated in November 2012 with the Soft Control: Art, Science and the Technological Unconscious, an international art exhibition with a conference, workshops and lectures.
Programme
Some of the projects done as primarily a KIBLA Portal initiatives were the aforementioned Soft Control exhibition and conference, which – by way of exhibitions, performances, lectures, workshops and screenings – dealt with the discourses and contexts of technology, science, arts and contemporary techno-culture; the Materiality in the Portal display that dealt with the concept of materiality through a diverse set of works of art - both the established canon of Slovenian and international art as well as the works of young, ambitious and promising authors - and some almost forgotten and overlooked artists. There was also an international exhibition that dealt with the First World War called Memory of Violence – Dreams of the Future 1914 -18, and one that dissected the cultural-political conglomeration of contemporaneity and the past. It focuses on the incessant exploration of identity, on the perpetuum mobile of political and cultural changes in Europe, especially Central, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe
A curious project was also the Don't Be Afraid, You Are The Best, which drew on a medium closest to the author, which is drawing. The main actors were the students of the Department of Fine Arts of the Faculty of Education, Maribor, joined by some established invited artists.
