Background
Together with the theatre director Bojan Jablanovec and the architect Aljoša Kolenc, Vlado Repnik set the ground for his later theatre research oriented projects in the project THEATRE (GLEDALIŠČE), which in 1988 produced the performance Helios, based on Bertolt Brecht's Galileo Galilei, with the students of the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (AGRFT). Repnik's subsequent theatre production is marked by continual conceptual shifts, while the projects move along the edges of the visual arts and theatre. In 1990, Repnik created the acclaimed performance Brigades of Beauty [Brigade lepote], which was presented also at the Evrokaz Festival, and Gertrude Stein (1994), shown at the Pula Festival, Croatia, at the Prague Quadriennal in 1995, and directed the performance I tempi passati (1999) at the Mladinsko Theatre, etc.
