Ljubljana Personal, Alternative City Guide, Lucija Stepančič, Ljubljana's Phonebook [Ljubljanski imenik], 2010
The magazine Likovne besede [Art Words] has been published since 1985 by the Union of Slovene Fine Arts Associations (ZDSLU). Likovne besede usually comes out twice a year as a double issue and is the main periodic publication in the field of visual art and art theory in Slovenia. It is published in Slovene with the summaries in English.
In 2009 the editors Nevenka Šivavec and Mojca Zlokarnik conceived Ljubljana Personal, Alternative City Guide [Ljubljana osebno, alternativni vodič], a new bilingual book series within the Likovne besede magazine framework. Each book is written by an artist or art-related expert and provides an alternative city guide for Slovenia's capital. In the first two books published in autumn 2009 art historian Miklavž Komelj (City Within the City [Mesto v mestu]) and artistic tandem Estela Žutić and Gill Duvivier (Revolution Action [Revolucija Akcija]) participated. The guides in 2010 were written by Lucija Stepančič (Ljubljana's Phone Book [Ljubljanski imenik], illustrated by Damijan Stepančič) and Daniel Jewesbury (Infantile City, Inside - Outside [Infantilno mesto, od znotraj - od zunaj]).
Content
The issues focus on a theme (Arte-fact?, Women in Art; Microutopias; Views on Contemporary Slovene Art; Art and Time; Dreams, Psychoanalysis and Art ...) combined with regular formats such as Round Table, Interview, Contributions to the Slovenian Dictionary of Art Terms, and the Theoretical Supplement. The magazine features also exclusive notes by the artists (diaries, reflections, artistic pages).
