-==International cooperation==
-In March 2010 gave the Gallery the podium also to the international project ''So Fresh,'' which is since 2008 focused on the video of young artists from the northern regions of Italy (Friuli-Julian March and Veneto), Austria, Croatia and Slovenia. The project functions on the basis of the public call for entries (usually in the beginning of the year). In 2009 the works were selected by Andrea Bruciati, the director of municipal contemporary art gallery from Monfalcone (Galleria Comunale d'Arte Contemporanea di Monfalcone). 10 selected artists (the only representative from Slovenia was the video of [[Ana Čigon]], the winner of 2009 [[OHO Group Award]]) were beside of being included in the video catalogue awarded also with the series of the group exhibitions in galleries of the region (Monfalcone, Gradisca d'Isonzo, Trieste, Rijeka), with the main aim of promoting emerging artists in all countries involved in the ''So Fresh''. In Slovenia the project was exhibited also in the [[Nova Gorica City Gallery]]. The edition of 2009 was financially supported by Fondacija/Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Gorizia.
