Stane Jagodič (1943) has been active in various fields, media and contexts of visual art since the mid-sixties. After graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana in 1970, he soon became one of the most active and prominent artists in Yugoslavia, due to his distinguishable artistic expression. In his continuously developing body of work, he has adopted several different concepts of artistic production using various artistic media such as photography, painting, graphics, cartoons, performance, assemblages and object art (installations). Since 1967, Stane Jagodič has been exploring artistic photography and some of its creative derivates like photomontage and photo collage, which are the most significant in his artistic production. Stane Jagodič was a co-founder and conceptual leader of Grupa Junij, active between 1970 and 1985. The group worked as a broad artistic platform that included a number of prominent local and international artists. As an independent artist, Stane Jagodič participated in more than 50 solo and more than 200 group exhibitions worldwide. He lives and works in Ljubljana. To accompany the exhibition Why? at the Photon Gallery, which is on view from November 6, 2025 to January 23, 2026, we have prepared a short offer of limited edition prints from the Stane Jagodič collection. -
NEW!A representative bilingual catalogue of the exhibition Stane Jagodič: Restless Eye brings together key texts, a rich selection of works, and the distinctive design of Kabinet 01 studio. The catalogue accompanying the survey exhibition Restless Eye at the City Art Gallery Ljubljana offers a comprehensive insight into more than six decades of creation by one of the most intriguing Slovenian artists. The publication features essential texts by curators Barbara Sterle Vurnik and Dejan Sluga, and by art historian Dr. Lev Menaše, illuminating Jagodič’s rich interdisciplinary practice – from drawing, photomontage and X-ray art to performance and complex assemblages. In addition to documenting the exhibition layout, the catalogue includes an extensive selection of reproductions of key works from the 1960s, 70s and 80s, revealing artistic breakthroughs, influences of historical avant-gardes and the artist’s distinctly socially critical stance. A particular value of the catalogue lies in the meticulously crafted design by Studio Kabinet 01, led by Jan Jagodič, whose thoughtful visual rhythm and contemporary graphic language complement the conceptual character of the exhibition. This representative bilingual catalogue is intended for both experts and lovers of contemporary art – an essential companion to one of the most important presentations of Jagodič’s oeuvre to date.

Little known outside of his native Hungary, the body of work Szász created from the late 1950s through the 1970s, epitomizes the artistic vision and innovation of photographers active in Hungary during the years of communism. Featuring boldly graphic abstractions primarily drawn from Hungarian life and landscape, Szász’s images communicate through a universal vernacular. Working in the tradition of Hungarian greats such as André Kertész and László Moholy-Nagy, János Szász’s images are notable for their experimentation with radical perspectives, formalist compositions, and stark, black and white contrast printing. Szász’s photographs transform ordinary scenes from his hometown of Pécs — snow-covered vineyards, stacked firewood, and rows of seating in a darkened movie theater—into bold and graphic compositions. By manipulating darkroom exposure and processing techniques, Szász often reduced his subjects to pattern. He utilized a darkroom process for high-contrast printing, which involved chemical over-processing, then painstakingly bleaching over toned areas with a paintbrush or sponge, to arrive at his dynamically graphic images.

The Tensionfield project gives an overview on the current condition and status of art photography in Central Europe after the developments in the 1980s and 1990s. The majority of the artist here emerged from camera club scenes in early 1980s and therefore their roots spring from local photographic traditions that shaped their sensibility for local socio-political circumstances during the transitional period; however, at the same time, they remain open to trends in world of contemporary photography and art.

NEW!Tjaša Kučič (1999) is a younger generation photographer, a third-year student of visual communications at the Faculty of Design. Besides photography, she is also engaged in graphic design. Her motifs come from the world of surfing, as it is both inspiring and familiar to her.

With my photographs, I want to trigger emotions in a viewer so that they can, in a way, relate to this experience and learn a little something about surf culture.” The photograph is printed on archival matt 290g paper. The entire edition is printed with a white border in the dimension 40 x 50 cm (including the white border). With each print, you will receive a certificate of authenticity.
