The City Perspectives exhibition presents works by Slovenian artists and deals with specific phenomena of the contemporary urban environment through photography and video. The photographic part of the exhibition includes works of five artists and shows us through different layers of the city of Ljubljana in order to point out on the constant urbanization processes or status modification of individual buildings and public spaces. Whereas, five conceptual video projects by mid-career artists explore the perception of urban realities of the city through their personal stories and intimate experiences.
