The city of women festival has gained recognition over the years, but its transdisciplinary note and, of course, the emphasis on the promotion of female artists are important.
From October 3 to 16 will take place in Ljubljana 22nd International Festival of Contemporary Arts: City of Women 2016. Every year at the beginning of October, the festival hosts a large selection of female artists from all over the world. Besides interdisciplinarity, which invites participants to experiment and cross the boundaries of individual artistic directions, an important stamp of the festival is its feminist role - the authors of concepts and ideas are women, the purpose of which is to draw attention to unbalanced population in artistic circles.
