The Izlake–Zagorje Art Colony was established in 1964 and enjoys a cult status as the oldest and most hospitable painting colony in Slovenia. The colony has been gathering local and international artists in the industrial environment of the former mining town who are able to work there for 10 days and asked to leave one work for the rich Izlake–Zagorje Art Colony art collection.

In 2008, during the EU "Year of Intercultural Dialogue" the colony hosted more international participants coming from the newly acceded EU countries (for example, Sean Kane from Slovakia, Masszi Ferenc from Hungary, Einar Vene from Estonia, Augustinas Žygimantas from Lithuania). In 2010 the colony hosted 12 artists and opened up to the younger generation as well as to the visual arts mediums beyond painting.

The collection contains over 800 artworks and enables a unique insight into almost 50 years of artistic endeavours since socialistic times. The highlights have been presented in the bilingual almanac published for the colony's 20th anniversary. Under the initiative of the Kranj-based Gallery of the Recipients of the Prešeren Award a travelling exhibition was prepared with the works by Zvest Apollonio, Avgust Černigoj, Herman Gvardjančič, Zdenko Huzjan, Stane Jarm, Zmago Jeraj, Metka Krašovec, Tomaž Kržišnik, Lojze Logar, Miha Maleš, Maksim Sedej, Jože Slak, Jože Tisnikar, Vinko Tušek, and others.

Background

The colony was initiated by Tone Leskovšek, local painter and teacher and backed up by a group of artists (Ivo Seljak - Čopič, Ive Šubic, Zoran Didek) as well as the Ljubljana Fine Artists Association. From 1965 till 2005 it was managed by Nande Razboršek, now succeeded by painter Nikolaj Beer as artistic director.
