The [[Independent Biennial]] (also called the Biennial of Slovenian Independent Illustration) is a platform for the promotion and development of the illustration scene in Slovenia. That said, the biennial recognises this as a very wide phenomenon, featuring not only book illustration, caricature, comics, design illustration, commercial logotypes and graffiti, but also the more "dynamic" creations such as animation, multimedia interventions, and interactive websites, and many other formats.

3rdHand is an organization formed by a group of creative individuals, interested in socially engaged projects. We initiate them with great responsibility, but also with full idealism, because we believe that social initiatives play a crucial role in overcoming uniformity and in encouraging diversity. Our background is art/design and politics/social sciences and we are inclined to an inter-disciplinary approach. In order to preserve and improve our living environment, a change in mentality, thinking and our value system is has to take place, that is why in our project we strive to connect the different levels of our society. Since 2005, TRETAROKA has been working on many cooperation projects, but we have focused on socially engaged, critical and other educational platforms that enlighten, develop, and connect topics, which influence creative and other climates in Slovenia.

Established in 2005, the 3rdHand Association (Društvo Tretaroka) is an organisation of quite a diverse and elusive character. It runs a multi-disciplinary and socially engaged programme that reflects the collective's backgrounds in design, art, cultural politics and social sciences. Proactive in setting up collaborative, educational and experimental platforms, the association is responsible for the Independent Biennial and Design Biotop.

Design Biotop 2015 Brainstorming at Kino Siska Photo Barbara Pocek.jpgDuring one of the editions of Design Biotop the participants, coming from the public administrations, were joined for workshops by selected designers, artists, and entrepreneurs. Pictured here at Kino Šiška, 2015


Main projects

The Independent Biennial (also called the Biennial of Slovenian Independent Illustration) is a platform for the promotion and development of the illustration scene in Slovenia. That said, the biennial recognises this as a very wide phenomenon, featuring not only book illustration, caricature, comics, design illustration, commercial logotypes and graffiti, but also the more "dynamic" creations such as animation, multimedia interventions, and interactive websites, and many other formats.

Design Biotop shares the former's openness in that it strives to connect design methods and a creative mindset with systemic interventions for societal change. Facilitating open knowledge exchange, this "experiential conference" consists of lectures, workshops and discussions, addressing not only those involved in design itself but also various types of public policy makers, private enterprises and artists.

Collaborations

The 3rdHand Association has worked with numerous NGOs and galleries, various private enterprises as well as several state bodies and public cultural institutes, among them, Kino Šiška Centre for Urban Culture, the Museum of Architecture and Design, the Biennial of Design (BIO), the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, Ljudmila Art and Science Laboratory, SPIRIT, the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Education, Science and Sport.

International projects

The association established an ongoing collaboration with Aalto University from Helsinki, with whom they realised a series of projects (Face2Face, Marmelada, Emotional Window, Design Biotop).

In 2015, the Independent Biennial travelled to Washington, D.C., as a part of the European Month of Culture programme. There were two exhibitions set up, one in the premises of the Embassy of the Republic of Slovenia Washington and the other in the gallery space of New York University (NYU). The exhibitions presented authors who participated in the biennial between 2007 and 2013, altogether more than 80 of them with about one hundred works. In 2017, they once again exhibited at the Clayton Center for the Arts, Maryville, and at the Arts & Culture Alliance, Knoxville.

This "travelling biennial overview" also stopped in the summer of 2015 in Finland, where around 50 visual works were featured in a screening exhibition at Merkillinen – visual poetry exhibition at Gallery Aila Seppälä Lahti, organised by Sanakuva Collective.
