Set in the city centre just by the city hall, Pritličje is possibly the only private establishment of its kind in Ljubljana. It frequently cooperates with Radio Študent (which, among other things, sets up monthly DJ evenings), the Emanat Institute, the ŠKUC Association and also with various sporadic partners like the Druga Godba Festival.
Background
With its activism and a LGBT endorsing policy (and partly also in terms of its managers), Pritličje is the heir of the Cafe Open, the first explicitly gay and lesbians friendly bar in Ljubljana which had a similar, but due to its size and location much less ambitious programme of cultural and political events. Unfortunately, the place had to close down as it was located in a residential area.
One could also argue that Pritličje represents a continuation of what another urban hub for culture, the bar Bikofe, had been producing until it was closed down, also due to the neighbours complaints.
Programme
Music-wise, Pritličje is focusing on electronic music and is presenting its various forms on weekly DJ evenings and electronica live acts. Occasionally, other genres come into play as well and the place had seen its share of rock and jazz concerts as well. The artists are mainly Slovenian, but chosen with a daft touch.
The lectures and round tables feature prominent Slovenian intellectuals, both those from the centre of the academia as well as from its outskirts (like for example the folks around the journal ČKZ Journal for Critique of Science, for Imagination and New Anthropology. Besides mainly dealing with humanistic and sociological areas, the guests at Pritličje are sometimes also curios people from the arts scenes and the public life.
