{{Teaser|
The [[Adriatic Slovenica Collection]] has grown since [[established::2007]] when initiated by [[Matjaž Gantar]], the insurance company's late supervisory board president. It is complemented with the exhibition programme in the  [[AS Gallery]], located in the Ljubljana premises of the KD Group corporation, the Adriatic Slovenica's owner, as well as with a careful sponsorship portfolio including a support for the [[OHO Group Award]], dedicated to the young visual artists. The collection has focused mainly on Slovenian artists with the ambition to expand internationally.

==Background and artworks==
The works of some 300 artists have been included in the collection. The graphic prints, paintings, drawings, and a few sculptures range from the late 19th century to nowadays, from [[Ivana Kobilca]] to [[Beli sladoled]]. The international part includes some works by various artists such as Ivan Generalić, Ivan Kožarić, and the AES + F Group. Most of the international artworks, however, came in through the acquisition of the private Keleia Collection, curated by [[Pavel Toplak]] and managed by [[Matjaž Gruden]] in the 1980s and 1990s, which organised also the international fine arts symposiums.
