Many years ago, the Ljubljana Graphic Biennale placed Slovenian fine art in a global context, so its role is still indisputable today - every year the organizers of the event tackle a current topic, which they present through graphic creations, and this year's 33rd Graphic Biennale 2019 will thus be based on the idea of satire as a distinctly visual language. Although graphics and satire each have their own particularities, they share a common claim to speak to the people and for the people. The collective Slavs and Tatars will perform the curatorial role.
