The Association of Slovene Photographers was established in 1973 by 68 members who are all professional photographers from various Slovene towns. Today it has around 300 members, all professionally engaged in photography. Their activities include education work, preserving the photography heritage and organising lectures, exhibitions and fairs.

The Association of Slovene Photographers founded the magazine Fotografija, Magazine on Photography, which is published by Contemporary Culture and Science Institute (ZSKZ Ljubljana).


Fotoantika fair

One of the most known events by the Association is the traditional annual Fotoantika fair at Križanke, a pittoresque outdoor venue in Ljubljana. In its 35 years of existence it gained international recognition and is visited by over 2000 visitors each year. The fair offers possibility to sell or purchase old photo equipment and the organiser also prepares traditional auction. Usually it also features an improvised photo atelier to get impression of the art of taking pictures 100 years ago.

The Association of Slovene Photographers also co-operates with the Secondary School for Design and Photography, Ljubljana in developing its curriculum, and with the Chamber of Craft of Slovenia and other organisations related to photography.
