Founded in 1974, the Božidar Jakac Art Museum is located in the building of the former Cistercian monastery near Kostanjevica by the Krka River, one of Slovenia's finest medieval monuments, which is situated in the picturesque landscape of south-eastern Slovenia. With its over 4,000 m² of exhibition surfaces, it is the largest gallery complex in Slovenia. Initially, the institution focused on presenting the artistic legacy of the Bela Krajina, Dolenjska and Posavje regions. Today, its scope covers also Slovenian expressionism and contemporary artistic production on the regional, national and international levels.

The Winner's Podium, an installation that won first prize in OHO Group Award competition, by artists Miha Perne and Leon Zuodar, working as Beli sladoled [White ice cream], 2011
Beli sladoled (meaning, "White ice cream") is an artist group consisting of two academic painters: Miha Perne from Ljubljana and Leon Zuodar from Postojna. They are primarily interested in drawing and use the element of surprise when preparing exhibitions in which they always avoid showing things twice.
Beli sladoled develops drawing in a wider context. The group considers drawings as living forms that set off visible reactions in contact with the viewer, mostly laughter. The drawings are usually on smaller formats and with various motifs that are a result of artistic experiment and the development of a context.
