History
The fine art exhibiting activities began in Murska Sobota already in 1965, with the opening of the exhibition pavilion of architect Franc Novak, forerunner of today's Murska Sobota gallery. Early exhibitions of regional art activities were dominated by the work of artists from the immediate area, but the programme was later expanded to include exhibitions of work from the rest of Slovenia and from abroad.
The pavilion became the first host of the Pannonian International Art Exhibition, for the first time organised in 1967 and entitled The Pannonian Landscape and People. It presented works by artists from Austria, Croatia, Hungary and Slovenia. Until 1971 Murska Sobota was the principal organiser of this exhibition, but it later continued in Hungary (at the Savaria Museum, Szombathely in 1973) and Austria (at the Landesgalerie Schloss Esterhazy, Eisenstadt in 1975). The exhibition is now a triennial event in which Austria, Croatia, Hungary and Slovenia participate.
In 1973 the pavilion also launched the first Yugoslav Biennial of Small Sculptures, which in 1999 developed into the European Triennial of Small Sculpture, Murska Sobota.
Between 1965 and 1992 were visual arts activites in Murska Sobota managed under different regional structures: before 1971 the exhibition pavilion operated within the Murska Sobota Regional Museum, and was then taken over by the Workers' University of Murska Sobota until 1978, when it was merged with Murska Sobota Regional and Study Library, Murska Sobota Regional Museum and the Park Cinema to form the Miško Kranjec Cultural Centre (as the centre, one of the first in Slovenia, was called until 1983).
In 1980 the exhibition pavilion moved into a purpose-built gallery space in Kocljeva ulica, and in 1992 Municipality of Murska Sobota established an independent public cultural institution under the current name Murska Sobota Gallery.
Exhibition programme
The programme is based on solo exhibitions of regional and national authors, but it opens their exhibiting platform to international artists usually invited for European Triennial of Small Sculpture, Murska Sobota. Exhibitions are curated by house and sometimes by freelance curators.

Andrej Medved was in the summer of 2009 curating new images of Robert Černelič, inspired by a camera shot. Robert Inhof, director of the Gallery, curated graphic exhibition of Vesna Drnovšek, who represent an innocent moment of beeing enabled to experience real happiness in the neurotic world, where human beeings are treated as objects rather than subjects.
