Programme
The founders of the Museum of Madness have developed an innovative project connecting the Slovenian and Austrian communities, based on the local natural and cultural heritage (the Cmurek and New Kinek castles as well as the defunct Petek electric mill, built in 1912–1914). The versatile bilingual programme has featured the production and screening of the Politisation of Friendship documentary on the closing down of the Trate psychiatric hospital (2014); the paraliterary I.D.I.O.T Group with a workshop and public reading (2014), a fine arts symposium Madness and Creativity, conceived by Saša Bezjak and Anja Jerčič Jakob and curated by Petra Kapš (2015). The Cmurek Castle also became a regional venue for concerts (Seviqc Brežice Festival), book discussions, lectures, exhibitions (The Mysterious World of the Mura River) etc.
The Museum's ambition is to become an international interdisciplinary centre "for cooperation and coordination of all agents whose work and lives are crossing the field of madness".
