History
After studios in Metelkova mesto Autonomous Cultural Zone were in the middle of 90s slowly filled by artist, the Alkatraz Gallery was founded by the informal group of artists, at that time mostly students of the Department of Sculpture, Academy of Fine Arts and Design with Boštjan Drinovec and Nataša Tajnik on the head and primarily with the goal to present home production of Metelkova.
In 1998, the gallery obtained two curators, historians of art Bojana Piškur, today the senior curator of Museum of Modern Art in Ljubljana, and curator Jadranka Ljubičič, who is managing the Gallery since 2000. They reorganized the programme: besides exhibiting authors from Metelkova, the gallery began to feature works also of more recognized artists. In time, it expanded its horizons by hosting foreign authors.
As a non-profit space, the Alkatraz Gallery has been sponsored by the Soros Foundation from the time of its formation until its withdrawal from Slovenia. Since 1998, its has been sponsored also by the city of Ljubljana and by the Ministry of Culture of Republic of Slovenia.
