STUDIO @ Hotel Cortisen

Brane Širca is an intermedia artist who was born in 1971 in Ljubljana and graduated from the Arthouse College of Visual Arts in Ljubljana. He exhibits regularly in Slovenia and abroad. He has received several recognitions and awards for his work and participates in symposia and artist colonies. In his creative work, he uses various approaches and materials, exploring different art forms from sculpture and graphic art to painting. He is interested in various aspects of human life, beliefs, and values. He is particularly sensitive to the current state of capitalist society and its consequences for human life. With his artistic works, which are mostly a response to current events and a critique of certain phenomena in contemporary society, he appeals to a diverse audience. He is one of those visual artists who are both inspired and irritated by contemporary social events to such an extent that they respond to them in a symbolic way, which is not lacking in satire and provocative responsiveness.
