Maurizio Barberis Bestowed Two of His Original Photographs to the Plečnik House

A few days ago, Italian photographer Maurizio Barberis, who exhibited his series of original photographs inspired by Plečnik's architecture here in the spring, visited the Plečnik House. During his visit, he delighted us with an exceptional gift: he donated two of his photographs from the exhibited series to the Plečnik House collection. We sincerely thank him for this generous gesture!

Plečnik House

Walking through Ljubljana it is impossible to ignore the abundance of arrangements and architectural creations made by the Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik. Born in Ljubljana, Plečnik learned his craft in Vienna and acquired a creative broadness of mind in Prague. He deftly implemented his skills as he returned to Ljubljana, where he created the phenomenon now called Plečnik’s Ljubljana. Many of his ideas were conceived in his home, a house in Trnovo, a monument of national importance since 2009 and today a public museum. You are kindly invited to visit the Plečnik House and learn about this modest man responsible for such monumental architecture. Enter the house in which Plečnik’s Ljubljana was created!
