XXX Until Dawn!
Lecture
An analysis of culture-specific pornographic discourse offers insights into many social and political perplexities. Liad Kantorowitz is going to examine excerpts from Israeli and Libanese porn and pose ethical questions, such as: how to deal with sexual fantasies that glorify racist and colonialist stereotypes? Or, should political correctness be ignored for the sake of good porno?
The lecture includes the viewing of explicit images. In English.

Performance / Exhibition opening
Sara Filipovič (Slovenia): Body X
In performance Body X, the viewer is offered an insight into a very special tailor workshop. A new dress is being made by decanting the erotic parts of another person's body into silicon. The person whose identity was stolen is now observing her/his own shapes in a new context...
Slađana Mitrović (Slovenia): (In)visible sex
A series of paintings and aquarelles that confronts the viewer with an obsessive representation of naked female bodies and genitalia by juxtaposing the high culture of painted canvas with contemporary porno-chic culture.
Open until March 20th 2009.
Mon-Tue: 17.00-20.00, Wed-Fri: 21.00-24.00 and Sat, March 5th 2009: 21.00-24.00.

23.00, Menza pri koritu
Concert
The elegant yet brute force of Anne Rolf's solo guitar performances combines a variety of genres from garage rock to country with an ease that makes her music quite irresistible. Allroh's complex lyricism is carried by a sensual voice, reminiscent of PJ Harvey's magic. Allroh is going to perform songs from her newly-released debut NYM.
DJane Sister (Slovenia) is going to provide a post-concert lounge atmosphere with funky and jazzy melodies.
Entrance Fee: 4 €
