{{Teaser|
[[Foo Bar]] is an annual multimedia programme that strengthens the socio-critical space of the [[Museum of Modern Art Ljubljana]], where the line separating the creator and the viewer is blurred. Conceived by Dunja Kukovec - who in 2001 organised the Scanline festival of free time, digital animated image and sound at the [[Museum of Modern Art Ljubljana]], see [http://www.scan-line.org http://www.scan-line.org] - Foo Bar stages events created by artists whose creativity is channelled through modern technology. Formal news and current issues can be seen in network, visual, sonic and programming experiments. Within its programme Foo Bar pursues future issues concerning technology and progress and their affect on society. Each artist or group is conceived in an idiosyncratic way, and sometimes different art practices or theories are set in action to improve communication and to understand the local context.
