17.09.2022 – "BRATNICE" Exhibition by Luca Gaspard

„As my father’s son and grandson of my grandparents, Slovenia has always been part of my inculturation, an invisible part that I have now given shape to through my photographs on the trip to „Bratnice“. Bratnice is a small village near Ljubljana, the capital, where my family built a wooden hut about 35 years ago right near the birthplace of my grandfather. After my visits I added my own stories and pictures, and got to know Slovenia and its people from a new side. This also meant partially detaching myself from the ideas of my father and those of my grandparents. My own investigation into the role that status plays in both a post-socialist Slovenian reality and the capitalist Western system. How are my Slovenian and German roots compatible for me? Where does the pursuit for the relevant status symbols derive itself from? And are material ideas still so formative?“

The master’s thesis Eat to connect by the designer Marta A. Pracht examines various themes of food culture and translates them into a museum context. For this purpose, workshops were held with creative people from the design field. On the basis of the history of food culture, various process-related objects were created which, as interactive exhibits in the final exhibition, encouraged people to eat, drink and share together.
