FV; Alternative Scene of the Eighties

Daten

Beschreibung

The exhibition conveys the tumultuous times of the 1980s in Slovenia, shedding light on the important social and artistic events of a period in which significant shifts were happening on the margins of the socialist society, making possible the appearance of the first gay and lesbian clubs, independent publishing houses, multimedia groups, and other forms of countercultural creativity.
The group FV 112/15 was a central part of Ljubljana’s counterculture and the heart of the alternative youth movement in the 1980s. The group displays all the signs of an artistic project, one that developed from an amateur theater group and, in the activities of an alternative club, provided a space for the expression of sexual, social, cultural, and artistic difference. The FV group was closely involved with the development of Slovene video art and the emergence of progressive trends in music, as expressed by such legendary groups as Borghesia, Videosex, and Laibach, among others.
