Galerija Kapelica / Kapelica Gallery

Galerija Kapelica / Kapelica Gallery Kapelica Gallery is a place for contemporary investigative art.

The mission of the Gallery is to present artistic practices and projects, whose subjects are advanced forms of contemporaneity with emphasis on technologies that have an effect on people's lives. By this, it creates conditions, which enable wider social reflections of predominant civilizational processes. We present artworks, therefore the conditions for reflection are created in an artistic way,

that is emotionally and empirically. With a programme which consists of spatial set-ups, live art events and theoretically-reflective lectures, we most often challenge scientific and technological applications, biopolitics and urban phenomena, addressing professional and other interested audiences.

Big news! 🎉 We’ve just kicked off the European Hybrid Intelligence Network, a new Creative Europe project. We’re setting up innovative spaces for creative synergy. Places where artists, scientists, engineers, and practitioners join forces. By tapping into cutting‑edge research on the bio‑computational abilities of non‑human organisms, radical artistic approaches, and the wisdom of natural‑system stewards, the teams will delve into creation of bold new artistic works.

The project is led by Kersnikova Institute, with an amazing team of partners:
✨ CPN – Centar za promociju nauke
✨ Gluon
✨ LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial
✨ ZKM - Zentrum für Kunst und Medien Karlsruhe
✨ KONTEJNER | biro suvremene umjetničke prakse

This is just the beginning. Stay tuned as we explore the future of hybrid intelligence across Europe.

The project is supported by Creative Europe
