General Information
Kino Šiška Centre for Urban Culture is a public institution founded by the Municipality of Ljubljana in 2009 as a project of revitalization of a former cinema into a contemporary and urban culture venue and a production brand for concerts, performing, intermedia and visual arts events. Last year we hosted more than 270 events, which were attended by around 90 thousand visitors. There are nine full-time of permanent employees, but we also cooperate with more than 30 contractual employees. Being a public institute established and co-funded by the City of Ljubljana, Kino Šiška performs public service in accordance with its constitutional documents, as well as programmes and the strategy. The sources of funding: around 50% City of Ljubljana, some specific projects advertised in national tenders, as well as the European grants, donation and sponsorships. Budget for 2015 is around 1.700.000 EUR.
Mission and Objectives

Kino Šiška is the central Slovenian institution, which is not being limited only to Ljubljana, but it is also attracts visitors from other Slovenian regions and abroad.
The Kino Šiška programme represents and combines the urban life, multiculturalism, a politically unbiased attitude and advanced technology, and besides this the architectural solutions of the place itself make Kino Šiška one of the Slovenia's friendliest venues for the physically impaired and sensory-deprived.
Main objectives:
Importance of knowledge exchange and joint co-creation
Presentation of under-represented art-related disciplines and genres
Combining theory with practice
International engagement and
Audience development

Main Projects / Activities

The main focus of Kino Šiška programme along with contemporary theatre and dance programme is on the music and visual and intermedia art programme. Of all the music events Kino Šiška has hosted so far we are most proud to single out the legends of alternative music like Laibach, Swans, My Bloody Valentine, Atari Teenage Riot, Mudhoney, Mark Lanegan, Shellac, Tricky, Tindersticks, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Lamb, Deus, The Ex, The Walkabouts, Grinderman, Editors etc; standard-bearers of the contemporary indie/pop/rock scene; the leading names of ethno and jazz; top contemporary electro dance and experimental live acts; rock, metal and punk legends, as well as the best regional and Slovenian bands.
In the field of film, visual arts and experimentations the events to be emphasised are Slovenian documentary premieres; Independent Biennale of Illustration; Exit Through the Glory Hole group exhibition of the contemporary graphic art from Belgrade and cross-boarder project Common Space and international MuralArt.
And the most prominent events from fields of dance and theatre are international collaborations and co-productions as well new performances from a series of pieces by young choreographers.
Relared to youth and education programme we produce Špil liga – competition for the best high school band and Indekš – cycle of concert events presenting new, promissing, and uprsising international musical performers.
Two of the most important annual projects of Kino Šiška are MENT and CoFestival.
MENT is an international project in two closely related sections. The first and foremost is a three-day conference and festival event MENT Ljubljana, which was premiered in February 2015 and will continue to be held each year at the beginning of February. The edition 2016 will take place between 3rd and 5th February.
The second set of project we want to specifically highlight is MENT platform, which operates within the meaning of the "Music Export Office" concept and delegates of Slovenian musical artists to similar such events abroad (EuroSonic / Netherlands, InMusic / Croatia, EXIT / Serbia, the march / Slovakia, Waves Vienna & Bratislava, Reeperbahn / Germany, Mother / France ...) and assist in the promotion, networking and production.
CoFestival 2015 with a subtittle The Art of Co-Living is annual International Festival of Contemporary Dance. In 2015 the festival again features a selection of very different artistic approaches, which intervene into our gaze, pushing us into collective reflection of imaginary figures, which constitute and produce society. We co-produce the festival with Nomad Dance Academy Slovenia.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

Being the first Slovenian public institution to be integrated in the Network, Kino Šiška will seek to promote the foundation and stimulate contacts with similar governmental and non-governmental institutions as well artistic and cultural activists, including the Slovenian organizations that are members already, as well as organizations from the other side of the (Mediterranean) Sea, particularly from non-EU-member states. Being a member, we will be introducing in Slovenia joint projects with countries that are featured only rarely in the Slovenian cultural sphere. Our projects will originate in the spheres of culture and art, as well as culture, education and media, the latter mostly focusing on the younger generation and audience development, which we have been integrating in several successful projects already, both at the national level and within European culture projects like Modul Dance, What’s the Deal and Quantum Music.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

Regardless of Slovenia being a Mediterranean country, our collaborations with Mediterranean countries, particularly those outside the EU, i.e. Middle Eastern and Northern African countries are practically non-existent. Especially now that the (Mediterranean) Sea has become synonymous with Refugee flows, it is crucial to promote its other implications. Learning about and cooperating with cultures from the other side of the (Mediterranean) Sea can bring a wider, more open, possibly more liberal view of the nations and countries that are currently mostly labeled negatively. It is cultural cooperation that could render the negative connotation positive.
Strengthens and development of the Network is in international and national collaboration and integration, establishing long-term contacts with partner institutions and in joining in international projects. The integration is based on the content itself and not only on the financial side.
