Venue
Delavski dom in Trbovlje was opened in 1954 in a newly built building, known for its façade mosaic by Marij Pregelj (it earned him the highest Slovene award in art, the Prešeren Award) and sculptures by Stojan Batič with the miners as a leitmotiv.
The upper floor reception hall can host up to 500 people, the cinema hall which was renovated in 1999 has 354 seats and the main theatre hall which was renovated in 2000 contains 434 seats. The gallery space has 45 linear metres of exhibition space.
Programme
The theatre programme is ranging from local cultural events to performances by renowned Slovene theatre houses and independent groups. Several well-known Slovene cultural groups from the Zasavje region often return home to perform at Delavski dom, including the EnKnapGroup (EKG), led by choreographer Iztok Kovač, and Laibach. Its cinema is a member of the Art Cinema Network, which distributes selected high-quality films around Slovenia, here balanced with a selection of children films and Hollywood flicks.
Trbovlje, The New Media Setting
At a certain point the cultural centre set its gaze to new media art and culture. It thus organises the Speculum Artium Festival (hosting the likes of the artist Stelarc, the robot Asimo, and the scientist dr. Hiroshi Ishiguro) and the video art festival Digitalbiugscreen (utilising its renovated cinema to give video art an impressive medium). In organising the festivals, DDT often collaborates with the University of Arts and design Linz (AT), the Institute of Advanced Media Arts and Science IAMAS (JP), the Arts Academy of the University of Nova Gorica, and many others.
DDT is among the founders of the Trbovlje, The New Media Setting, which also sets up courses and workshops for youth, collaborates with the local tech companies, and sets up art exhibitions. In a way, the establishment of the virtual museum 4. Dritl is part of the same 'modernising' drive.
Invited by the Speculum Artium Festival, a group of Japanese artists studying Empowerment informatics at the University of Tsukuba meet with Borut Pahor, the president of Slovenia, 2015
New gallery DDT
The so called New gallery DDT opened its doors in 2010, having two separate gallery spaces. Set on the former grounds of the boiler room and the coal storage room, one of the two spaces retains the old industrial look while the other is a so called white cube.
The programme ranges from classical visual arts like painting to new media art installations. The gallery supports a group of young artists from the region, whose work it produces and presents and which also shapes the general aesthetic vision of the gallery. Among them are Maša Jazbec, Špela Pavli, Boris Beja, Vesna Davidovič, and others.
The New gallery DDT [Nova galerija DDT] opened its doors in 2010 as a part of the Delavski dom Trbovlje Cultural Centre. It is comprised of two spaces, one being the standard gallery white cube, and the other retaining the original, industrial look of the former boiler room.
