Showing until Saturday, 18 June from 16:00 to midnight 2016 Uroš Weinberger: Seven Sisters*
Seven Sisters is a synonym for seven biggest and most influential oil companies in the world. The project focuses on the problematic of oil industry and the impact of corporate industrial giants on global politics, economy and ecology. Weinberger also explores the impact of visual messages in mass media on the contemporary, typically undemanding and uninterested observer, and investigates the possibility of manipulation by means of images on advertisement billboards.

In 2001, he received the Prešeren Student Award of the University of Ljubljana. In 2002 he was invited to the Academy of Fine Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria. In 2011, he was awarded at the Biennal Exhibition – A Look at Visual Arts in Slovenia 6: I, Here, Now. He participated in an artist residency in Berlin, and later at the Schafhof – Europäisches Künstlerhaus Oberbayern residency in Freising. He lives and works as a freelancer in Novo Mesto and Ljubljana.
