Slovenia

The aim of Bunker is to refresh and invigorate the Slovene cultural space with innovative approaches. We encourage the mobility of artists and their works both in Slovenia and abroad; and promote the intertwining of different art disciplines. We create a space, which allows the exchange of experiences, knowledge and interests among artists and various audiences. Bunker tries to stimulate discussions regarding various artistic practices and subjects; and to create artistic programmes and events that reflect upon topical social, ecological, political and cultural issues.

THE PURPOSE is the production and presentation of theatre and dance performances and the organization of workshops and other educational programs. Bunker is sensitive to all issues involved in developing the stage arts, from the infrastructure and education all the way to the position of contemporary arts.
THE GOALS of Bunker include opening Slovene cultural space and enabling the exchange of experience and knowledge among the artists as well as involving the local audiences in all the processes of development. Bunker attempts to create an environment promoting the discussion of various artistic practices and subject matters beyond Slovene cultural boundaries.

Čar Slovenije wants to promote slovenian authors, heritage, culture and literature generally.

The Association's primary objective is to produce and organise affirmative action projects in order to draw attention to the disproportionately low participation and representation of women in the field of arts and culture.
City of Women – The Association for Promotion of Women in Culture aims to raise the visibility of high-quality innovative creations by women artists, theoreticians and activists from all over the world. Since 1995, it has presented the artistic and cultural production of women in the performing arts, music, visual arts, film and video, literature and theory, and thereby aimed to provoke a debate and raise awareness as to the currently disproportionate participation and representation of women in arts and culture, as well as in society as a whole. City of Women simultaneously provides a platform that focuses upon and considers pertinent critical contemporary issues.

MOTA BASIC PRINCIPLES:
Temporality (time):
- Each artist is invited for a period of one week to one month.
- Each artist should produce a work that is of temporary nature and that integrates the public
(local people) or is installed/performed in public space.
Transitoriness (space):
- Each MOTA (Museum of Transitory Art) residence is a space for production and reflection,
but the museum is located outside the residence.
- MOTA uses the webspace mota-atom.com for documentation, archiving, and reflection
and is conceived as a network of different local temporary MOTA spaces around the world.
Dynamic organism:
- MOTA is never at rest. It is a live organism as it changes according to new MOTA spaces
and people who work within its program and space.
- The growth of MOTA in time and space is reflected in new MOTA local studios and in its webspace, which itself has a form of dynamic atomic organism.
