Pekinpah Association

ISKRA, Non-Aligned Design: 1946-1990 exhibition

Simultaneously being an organisational vehicle for dancers, designers, architects and musicians, the Pekinpah Association is a rather curious production house. Established in 2007 and based in Ljubljana, its main activities feature contemporary dance production; publishing and presenting theoretical and practical reflections on design; and managing the musical band Silence. The association produces performances and exhibitions, organises lectures and congresses, and publishes research into new media and information practices.

It is an eminently international enterprise in all of these respects, regularly performing, lecturing or collaborating abroad. Among its many activities is the Spider project, not only an annual festival but also a transnational artistic network.

Španski borci Culture Centre re-opened in November 2009 in the Ljubljana-Moste neighbourhood of the city. Run by En-Knap Productions, the centre represents the largest facility intended for cultural activities in Slovenia managed by a non-governmental organisation. Providing a much-needed performing space in Ljubljana as well as two rehearsal spaces, the centre's programme focuses on stage arts, however, it also cover the areas of music, visual arts, literature, and offers a children's programme. The centre also includes a reading room, mediatheque, coffee shop and gallery.

RadioCona

RadioCona is a temporary radio project for contemporary arts established in 2008 by Cona Institute, an institute for contemporary arts processing. The radio has become an important agent in claiming public radio-frequency space for artistic and broader social contexts. It runs an occasional innovative programme of its own production and serves as a common platform for various contemporary visual or performing arts events in Ljubljana.

radioCona maintains an important online audio archive of new media art, experimental music and recorded events such as round tables and debates on the major issues concerning the free-lance and independent production in Slovenia (cultural policy, public space and copyright) as well as international symposia (Reflective Dramaturgy by Maska Institute in the frame of the 2010 Ukrep - Festival of Dance Perspectives, for example). The archive is freely accessible on the radioCona blog.
