29. literarno-glasbeni festival ŽIVA KNJIŽEVNOST s spremljevalnim programom O’živela knjiga

10. 6. – 17. 6. 2022, pred Galerijo Škuc, če dežuje v prostorih Galerije škuc.

Vabimo vas na 29. literarno-glasbeni festival Živa književnost, ki se bo odvijal od 10. do 17. 6. 2022 pred Galerijo Škuc na Starem trgu 21 v Ljubljani. Letos proslavljamo pol stoletja delovanja Društva Škuc, ki je skozi čas zgradilo svojevrstno omrežje kulturno-umetniške produkcije.

Festival bomo začeli z večerom prevajalske delavnice češke in slovenske poezije, na kateri se bodo češki in domači pesniki_ce mojstrili_e v vlogi prevajalcev_k. Svoje pesmi bodo interpretirali_e v izvirniku, prav tako pa bomo slišali, kako zvenijo v prevodu. V tem dinamičnem prepletu bodo nastopili_e Adam Borzič, Magdalena Šipka, Jan Škrob, Alenka Jovanovski, Aljaž Koprivnikar in Tone Škrjanec.

Gostili bomo tudi dve tuji pesnici in pisateljici Mary B. Tolusso iz Italije in Sampurno Chattarji iz Indije ter mozambiškega pesnika Delmara Maio Gonçalvesa. Ob njih se bodo predstavili_e še domači prozaistki Anja Mugerli in Tina Vrščaj ter pesnika Lukas Debeljak in Tom Veber.

Glasbeni del festivala bo nadvse razgiban, saj bomo prisluhnili glasbenikom_icam raznovrstnih izrazov, od izvajalcev_k eksperimentalnih zvrsti, elektronike in jazz petja do kantavtorjev_ic. Na odru bodo Nina Virant & Ansambel za preužitek, Alleganca, Jana Beltran, Jernej Marušič – Octex, Shoe & Shoelace – Jure Boršič & Jaka Berger, Patricija Škof, Strunoslav in Perkakšns.

Tudi letos bo imel festival ob sebi sopotnika, to je spremljevalni program O’živela knjiga. Ta je namenjen predvsem otrokom in mladostnikom, druženju s knjigami in spodbujanju ustvarjalnosti. Ob popoldanskih urah se bodo zvrstile lutkovne predstave, dve radijski igri, gledališka predstava, impro pripovedovalnica ter predstavitvi risoromana in slikanice. Poleg tega smo pripravili likovne delavnice, delavnico stripa, recikliranja in ročnega tiskanja na blago.

Festival Živo književnost bomo zaključili z zabavo ob 50. obletnici Društva Škuc. Ob tej priložnosti bodo spregovorile legende: govorci_ke, ki bodo s spomini osvetlili_e delovanje Škuca. Škuc in njegovi_e sodelavci_ke so v teh petih desetletjih soustvarjali alternativno sceno, tako na glasbenem, vizualnem, gledališkem, filmskem in literarnem področju, ter s svojo nezanemarljivo založniško in festivalsko dejavnostjo razvijali domači kulturni zemljevid. Ob tem je Društvo Škuc spodbudilo vzpostavitev in razvoj lgbt gibanja, prispevalo k večji strpnosti do lgbt oseb v družbi ter tako pripomoglo k širjenju svobodomiselnosti.

Alleganca

V duo zasedbi Alleganca se nam bosta predstavili Jelena Milojević in Meta Erženičnik, tokrat pa se jima bo na basu pridružil še Matija Krivec.

»Alleganca je energičen, a hkrati nežen preplet ženskih energij, ki izžarevajo intimo in mehkobo«.

Meta Erženičnik, pevka, igralka, tekstopistka, moderatorka, imitatorka.

Je vokalistka in ustanoviteljica glasbene zasedbe Cabaret band ter stalna članica igralskega ansambla Rdeči Kabaret in Somrak.

Medijsko pozornost je pritegnila kot imitatorka Helene Blagne (bila je gostja v oddajah TLP, Sobotno popoldne, Piramida).

Od leta 2004 je del uspešne ekipe Šole za nastopanje Bast. Kot pevka je nastopila v plesno-pevskih predstavah I Know I Can, Klopca za dva in Sladki Greh. Od leta 2013 sodeluje tudi z Mladinskimi centri in prireja delavnice za otroke in mladostnike (Veseli Mikrofon, Karaoke za otroke, Pop delavnice).

Kitaristka in še kaj Jelena Milojević (r. 1979): improvizatorka, skladateljica, raziskovalka novih tehnologij, organizatorka, učiteljica, vsestranska odrska umetnica. Njen izjemen socialni čut ima temelje v slavni beograjski Akademiji. Hitro se najde v klubu Gromka, tam osnuje »hišni« bend Karavano Iluzij, intervencijsko skupino, ki misli na begunce, prebežnike, azilante, ilegalce … kar vso margino. Spočetka nastopa z Zlatimi kastrioti, Sabahbluz, Trotoart, sledi Mesto žensk (z Minko Đonlić, 2003; muzika za Topografijo abecednega mesta, 2005). Približa se teatru (PGK; Glej, DIC, MGL, PTL), ustvari Galerijo glasbe, začne gostovati po Evropi in intenzivira mentorski talent.

 

The Alleganca duo are Jelena Milojević and Meta Erženičnik.

“Alleganca is an energetic yet gentle intertwinement of female energies that radiate intimacy and softness”

Meta Erženičnik, singer, actor, songwriter, host, imitator. She is a vocalist and founder of Cabaret Band and permanent cast member of the performing ensembles Rdeči Kabaret and Somrak. She first drew media attention as an imitator of the famous Slovenian singer Helena Blagne (appearing in TV shows TLP, Sobotno popoldne and Piramida). Since 2004 she has been part of the successful team of the Bast School for Performing Arts. As a singer she has performed in the singing and dancing productions I Know I Can, Klopca za dva and Sladki Greh. Since 2013 she has also been working with Youth Centres, organising workshops for children and teenagers (Veseli Mikrofon, Karaoke za otroke, Pop workshops).

Jelena Milojević(b. 1979), a guitar player and much more: improviser, composer, explorer of new technologies, organiser, teacher and all-round performing artist. The famous Belgrade club Akademija provided the basis for her exceptional social sensibility to further evolve. She found her way to the Gromka Club in Ljubljana quickly enough and formed a “house” band there – an intervention band bringing attention to refugees, immigrants, asylum seekers, the illegals… In short, the entire marginalized spectrum. First she performed with Zlati kastrioti, Sabahbluz, Trotoart, then continued her performing path with the City of Women (with Minka Đonlić, 2003; music for Topografija abecednega mesta, 2005). She ventured into theatre (PGK; Glej, DIC, MGL, PTL) and created the Gallery of Music. Having travelled across Europe as a guest performer, she has also strengthened her talent as a mentor.

 Jernej Marušič, bolj znan kot Octex, velja za enega bolj uveljavljenih izvajalcev slovenske elektronske glasbe, ki se giblje med klubom in avantgardo in raziskuje unikatne ritmične atmosfere. Lani se je s svojim petim albumom Mindrifft in zagonom lastne založbe Polynya music vrnil iz nekajletne glasbene samoizolacije. Njegov prvenec Idei Lahesna (Tehnika, 2002) še danes velja za enega najboljših dub-techno albumov, za katerega je prejel nagrado Bumerang in bil dve leti zaporedoma izbran med 10 finalistov za nagrado RFI. Sledeča albuma Variations (rx:tx, 2005) in Every Sound Tells a Story (rx:tx, 2009) sta predstavila njegovo željo po eksperimentiranju in oddaljevanju od klubskih korenin. Leta 2012 je luč sveta zagledal album Dead Center of Nowhere (Entropy records), ambientalno nadaljevanje prvenca. Remiksiral je izvajalce kot so Laibach, Ultra Red, Marko Furstenberg, Gabriel Le Mar in mnoge druge. Od leta 2009 do 2014 je sodeloval v triu za improvizirano elektronsko glasbo Ago Tela.

Jernej Marušič, better known as Octex, is one of the most important figures in Slovenian electronic music, oscillating between clubs and the avant-garde and exploring unique rhythmic atmospheres. Last year, he released his fifth album Mindrifft and started his own record company Polynya music, making his return from a few years of musical self-isolation. His first album Idei Lahesna (Tehnika, 2002) is still considered one of the best dub-techno albums, for which he received the Bumerang Award and was one of the 10 finalists for the RFI Award two years in a row. His next two albums, Variations (rx:tx, 2005) and Every Sound Tells a Story (rx:tx, 2009) showcased his desire to experiment and move away from his club roots. In 2012 he released Dead Center of Nowhere (Entropy records), an ambient continuation of his first album. He has remixed everyone from Laibach to Ultra Red, Marko Furstenberg, Gabriel Le Mar and many others. Between 2009 and 2014, he was part of the improvised electronic music trio Ago Tela.

Njeni prevodi poezije in proze Sukumarja Raya – Wordygurdyboom! – so bili uvrščeni v serijo Puffin Classic, njen prevod pesmi v prozi Joy Goswami, z naslovom After Death Comes Water (Po smrti pride voda; HarperCollins, 2021), pa je bil opisan kot poustvaritev bengalskih izvirnikov »v živem glasu, izvirna in živa kot Joyceova angleščina«. Uredila je tudi antologiji Sweeping the Front Yard (Pometanje dvorišča; 2010), ki združuje pesnice, pišoče v angleščini, malajalščini, teluškem jeziku in urduju; in Future Library: Contemporary Indian Writing (Knjižnica prihodnosti: sodobna indijska pisava; ki bo izšla julija 2022 pri Red Hen Press, ZDA). Bila je rezidenčna avtorica na Ameriški univerzi v Parizu in Pariški šoli Univerze v Kentu leta 2019, trenutno pa uči pisanje študente oblikovanja na IIT v Bombaju.

Her translation of Sukumar Ray’s poetry and prose – Wordygurdyboom! – is a Puffin Classic; and her translation of Joy Goswami’s prose poems After Death Comes Water (HarperCollins, 2021) has been lauded as a recreation of the Bangla originals in “a living voice, as inventive and vivid as the English of Joyce”. Her work as an anthologist includes Sweeping the Front Yard (2010), which features women poets writing in English, Malayalam, Telugu and Urdu; and Future Library: Contemporary Indian Writing (forthcoming July 2022 from Red Hen Press, USA).

 Shoe & Shoelace je novi duet, ki ga sestavljata izkušeni tolkalist, ustvarjalec elektronske glasbe, skladatelj in improvizator Jaka Berger ter nekoliko mlajši saksofonist in klarinetist Jure Boršič. Duet je bil zasnovan kot izvedba mednarodnega tria Bootleg Unit, v katerem je poleg slovenskih glasbenikov sodeloval tudi francoski ustvarjalec elektronike Colin Petit, in je manipuliral in vzorčil akustične zvočne vire s pomočjo kasete in učinkov. Obdobje koronavirusa je močno omejilo možnosti mednarodnega sodelovanja, zato sta se Berger in Boršič, ki sta tudi del tria Niemoy in pred leti del Bergerjevega projekta Tentet of the Audible Life Stream, odločila, da naprej raziskujeta soobstajanje organskih in elektronskih zvokov. Njune modulirane improvizacije z močnim, svobodnim jazzom, vplivi noisa in ambientalne glasbe ter punka, bodo kmalu izšle na prvem albumu pri Bergerjevi založbi Sound Droughts.

 Shoe & Shoelace is a new duo of seasoned percussionist, electronics artist, composer and improviser Jaka Berger and slightly younger saxophonist and clarinetist Jure Boršič. The duet was formed as a rendition of the international trio Bootleg Unit, in which, in addition to Slovenian musicians, the French electronics maker Colin Petit also participated, manipulating and looping acoustic sound sources with the help of a tape and effects. The corona period greatly narrowed the possibilities of international cooperation, so Berger and Boršič, who also participate in the Niemoy trio and years ago in Berger’s project Tentet of the Audible Life Stream, decided to further explore the coexistence of organic and electronic sounds. Their modulated improvisation with strong free jazz, noisier as well as ambient and punk influences will be released shortly in the form of their first album on Berger’s Sound Droughts label.

Mitja Uršič in Maruša Jenič, glasbena ustvarjalca, ki sta spomladi 2020 oblikovala Strunoslav, duo s kitaro, violino ter slovenskimi avtorskimi besedili. Mitja Uršič (1985) je kitarist samouk, poleg ustvarjanja in izpopolnjevanja na inštrumentu piše poezijo ter se občasno ukvarja s prevajanjem filozofije (npr. knjige Muren: igre, življenje in utopija; Sophia, 2020 in Pogovori v limbu; Apokalipsa, 2013). Maruša Jenič (1977) je v otroštvu obiskovala glasbeno šolo, smer violina, po tem pa je sodelovala v različnih avtorskih, etno, kabarejskih zasedbah (npr. na festivalih Trnfest, Mesto žensk, Poletje v NUK, Plavajoči grad, v Celici, Prulčku, Daktariju itd). Marca 2021 sta v samozaložbi izdala svoj prvenec Špečmeš, zatem sta se javnosti predstavila na dogodkih Praznik glasbe, festival Plavajoči grad, Kantfest in Cmakajne. Od prvenca, ki je predstavljal preplet ljudskih in avtorskih pesmi, sta prešla na ustvarjanje pretežno avtorske glasbe. Tako bo na novem albumu deset avtorskih skladb ter dve uglasbeni pesmi Frana Levstika.

Mitja Uršič and Maruša Jenič, musicians who, in spring 2020, formed Strunoslav, a guitar and violin duet with original Slovenian songs. Mitja Uršič (1985) is a self-taught guitarist who, in addition to making music and perfecting his guitar skills, writes poetry and occasionally translates works of philosophy (e.g. The Grasshopper: Games, Life and Utopia; Sophia, 2020, and Conversations in Limbo; Apokalipsa, 2013). Maruša Jenič (1977) went to music school as a child where she learned to play the violin, and was later a member of various original music, ethno, cabaret groups (e.g. playing at festivals such as Trnfest, the City of Women, the Summer Festival at NUK, the Floating Castle, at Celica, Prulček, Daktari, etc.). In March 2021, the duet self-released their first album Špečmeš and then played at Fête de la musique, the Floating Castle Festival, Kantfest and Cmakajne. Since their debut, which was a mix of folk and original songs, they have moved onto making mostly original music. Their new album will therefore feature ten original songs and two poems by Fran Levstik set to music.

Gibanje užitka /Pleasure-in-Motion, pesniško-glasbeni performans

Poezija: Alja Adam

Klavir: Quentin Drouet

Umetnika raziskujeta odnos med zvokom in besedo tako, da sledita čustvom, notranji energiji, ki vznika v prostorih, v katerih se srečujeta. Klavirska glasba in poezija se prepletata znotraj izraznega procesa: senzorično doživljanje čustev se preliva v tok gibanja navzven, v okolje. Posebno pozornost posvečata »veselju«, »radosti«, ki se porajata ob umetniškem (so)ustvarjanju, kot tudi širše. Pri tem se navezujeta na vsebino besede »joy«, ki znotraj trubadurskega pesništva opisuje duševno stanje, ki kljub prisotnosti bolečine (ali prav zaradi te), ustvarja prostor, kjer napetosti med nasprotji izginejo, se transformirajo v (kozmično) vibracijo užitka.

The two artists explore the relationship between the sound and the word by pursuing their emotions, their inner energy arising in the spaces where they meet. Piano music and poetry intertwine within the expressive process: the sensorial experience of emotions flows outwards, into the environment. In addition, they attach special attention to “happiness”, “joy” arising during the co-creative process, but also in broader terms. They refer to the meaning of the world “joie”, which, in the context of the troubadour lyric poetry denotes a mental state that, despite the presence of pain (or perhaps precisely because of it), generates a space where the tensions between antagonisms disappear, transforming themselves into a (cosmic) vibration of pleasure.

Delmar Maia Gonçalves, Portugalska,Mozambik / Portugal, Mozambique

Vodi / Hosted by: Brane Mozetič

Glasba / Music: Perkakšns

Delmar Maia Gonçalves, rojen leta 1969 v Mozambiku, zdaj pa že dolgo let živi na Portugalskem. Za svoje pesniško delo (piše v portugalščini) je prejel več nagrad. Je tudi profesor in predava na različnih univerzah po svetu. Nekaj let je vodil krog mozambiških piscev, ki ne živijo v domovini.

Perkakšns

Najprej je bil boben sredi Krakova, ki je začaral Anžeta Kristana, deset let kasneje, leta 2001, pa bobnarski nastop za uvod v festival Zarjavele trobente v Litiji. Tako je nastala skupina Perkakšns. V naslednjih letih je delovanje uokvirila v Kulturno umetniško društvo HUD, člani so se začeli udeleževati glasbenih delavnic, vadili so vse resneje, širili repertoar in vse več nastopali. Med odmevnejšimi nastopi je nekaj Škisovih tržnic, MatKultra, Zasavje se predstavi v Cankarjevem domu v Ljubljani, Cvičkarija, Final Flash 2005 in 2006, številni nastopi v lastni organizaciji, ter gostovanja v Bosni, Avstriji, Nemčiji in na Hrvaškem. Skupina Perkakšns v okviru Kulturno umetniškega društva HUD vsako leto pripravi samostojni letni koncert v Litiji, poleg tega pa so gostje na številnih drugih prireditvah, koncertih in festivalih v občini in izven. Skupino vodi Anže Kristan – Kiki, diplomant bobnarske šole Zlatka Kaučiča, vodja Male šole za tolkala v Litiji in mentor mladi kombo skupini, član številnih glasbenih skupin.

V zadnjem času pripravlja skupen projekt z Zoranom Zorkom, večkratnim svetovnim prvakom v igranju na diatonično harmoniko, je tudi član več drugih zasedb.

First there was a drum in the middle of Krakow that put a spell on Anže Kristan, and ten years later, in 2001, a drum performance that opened the Rusty Trumpets Festival in Litija. That was how Perkakšns was formed. In the following years, the group made music as part of the HUD Cultural and Arts Society, the members started taking part in music workshops, practicing harder, expending their repertory and playing more concerts. Their most notable appearances include several editions of the Škis Market, MatKultra, Zasavje Takes over the Ljubljana Cankarjev dom, Cvičkarija, Final Flash 2005 and 2006, various self-organised performances and touring in Bosnia, Austria, Germany and Croatia. Every year, Perkakšns holds an independent annual concert in Litija as part of the HUD and makes guest appearances at many other events, concert and festivals in the municipality and elsewhere. The leader of the group is Anže Kristan – Kiki, a graduate of the Zlatko Kaučič drum school, head of the Percussion Preschool in Litija, mentor to a young combo group and member of several bands. In 2016, he received the Porin Award for best Croatian debut album as part of the Sara Renar Band. He is currently working on a joint project with Zoran Zorko, absolute world champion of diatonic harmonica, also a member of several other groups.

Glasba, spomini in zdravica v živo / Live music, memories and toast: Pero Lovšin & co., Peter Mlakar, Matjaž Hanžek, Marina Gržinić, Bratko Bibič, Andrej Rozman Roza, Suzana Tratnik …

Študentski kulturni center – ŠKUC je nastal 10. marca leta 1972, kmalu po radikalnem študentskem gibanju 70-ih, in je imel velik vpliv na kulturne in družbene spremembe. V 80-ih je ŠKUC odigral vodilno vlogo pri razvoju infrastrukture in alternativne kulture v Sloveniji in tudi Jugoslaviji. V 90-ih je oral ledino v nevladnem sektorju in razširil svoje delovanje na mnoga področja, od zdravstva do informiranja za mlade.

Na mnogih kulturno-umetniških področjih je bil ŠKUC na čelu – tu so prvič razstavljale_i uveljavljene_i umetnice_ki in kolektivi: Irwin, Duba Sambolec, Emerik Bernard, Marjetica Potrč, V.S.S.D., Dušan Mandić … Oblikovala se je prva jugoslovanska produkcija sodobnega in eksperimentalnega videa, kjer so ustvarjali skupina Borghesia, Neven Korda, Zemira Alajbegović, Marina Gržinić. Pri ŠKUC-u so izšle prve plošče legendarnih glasbenih imen: Tomaž Pengov, Pankrti, Laibach, Borghesia, Otroci socializma, Via ofenziva in Čao pičke!. Izšli so pionirski glasbeni, ženski, gejevski in lezbični fanzini. V filmski sekciji je nastala prva slovenska celovečerna risanka Socializacija bika ter mnogo nagrajenih celovečernih in dokumentarnih filmov. V okviru ŠKUC-a oz. zveze ŠKUC-Forum so začeli tudi prodorno gledališče Ane Monro, založba Studia humanitatis, Založba FV, Klub K4, E-motion film, festival Novi rock in drugi.

V ŠKUC-u so se formalno organizirala tudi družbena gibanja iz 80-ih: prva feministična skupina Lilit in LGBT-gibanje s prvo gejevsko skupino Magnus, nato lezbično skupino LL, edinstvenima na tleh bivše Jugoslavije. Tukaj se je zgodil prvi festival Magnus – Homoseksualnost in kultura, nato Festival lezbičnega in gejevskega filma. Nastali sta specializirani LGBT-zbirki Lambda in lezbična Vizibilija ter Lezbična knjižnica, edina tovrstna v širši regiji.

ŠKUC ostaja edinstveni na področju vizualnih umetnosti, glasbe, literature, založništva, filma in videa, gledališča, LGBT-aktivizma, informiranja in svetovanja za mlade, otroškega programa, sociale, knjižničarstva, arhiviranja, festivalske in LGBT-klubske dejavnosti. Vsako leto ŠKUC organizira festivale, ki so ključni za oživitev centra Ljubljane, med njimi Živo književnost, O´živelo knjiga, Dobimo se pred Škucem, Teater v Galeriji, Lezbično četrt, Topografije zvoka, Chilli Space in najstarejši Festival LGBT filma v Evropi. ŠKUC tudi sodeluje v mnogih pomembnih mednarodnih projektih oziromas mrežah, na primer, Bienalu mladih ustvarjalcev iz Evrope in Sredozemlja, ERA, Erica… Mnoge_i avtorice_ji, s katerimi sodelujemo, so dobitnice_ki številnih nagrad in priznanj doma in v tujini.

The Student Cultural Centre – ŠKUC was established on 10 March 1972, soon after the radical student movement in the 1970s, and was instrumental in bringing about cultural and social change. In the 1980s, ŠKUC played a leading part in the development of infrastructure and alternative culture in Slovenia and Yugoslavia. In the 1990s, it spearheaded the formation of the NGO sector, expanding its activities to a number of areas, from healthcare to information services for young people.

ŠKUC was at the forefront in many fields of culture and art – its exhibition space was where many established artists and collectives made their debut: Irwin, Duba Sambolec, Emerik Bernard, Marjetica Potrč, V.S.S.D., Dušan Mandić, etc. It gave birth to the first Yugoslav production of contemporary and experimental video, with the likes of Borghesia, Neven Korda, Zemira Alajbegović and Marina Gržinić. ŠKUC released the first records of music legends, such as Tomaž Pengov, Pankrti, Laibach, Borghesia, Otroci socializma, Via ofenziva and Čao pičke!. It published pioneer music, genre, women’s, gay and lesbian fanzines. Its film section produced the first Slovenian animated feature film Socializacija bika (Socialisation of a Bull) and many award-winning feature and documentary films. ŠKUC or the ŠKUC Forum was also the cradle of the innovative Ana Monro Theatre, the Studia humanitatis publishing house, the FV publishing house, the K4 Club, E-motion film, the New Rock Festival, etc.

ŠKUC provided the foundation for the formal organisation of the 1980s social movements: the first feminist group Lilit and the LGBT movement with the first gay section Magnus and later the lesbian section LL, both one of a kind on the territory of former Yugoslavia. This is where the first Magnus Festival – Homosexuality and Culture took place, later changing its name to the Lesbian and Gay Film Festival. It provided a home to the specialised LGBT book series Lambda and the lesbian book series Vizibilija, as well as the Lesbian Library, the only such library in the wider region.

ŠKUC remains a unique phenomenon in visual arts, music, literature, publishing, film and video, theatre, LGBT activism, information services and counselling for young people, children’s programme, social issues, library activities, archiving, festivals and LGBT club events. Every year, ŠKUC organises festivals that are vital to the life of the centre of Ljubljana, including the Living Literature Festival, O´živela knjiga, Let’s Meet in Front of ŠKUC, Theatre in the Gallery, the Lesbian Quarter, Topographies of Sound, Chilli Space and the oldest LGBT film festival in Europe. ŠKUC also takes part in many important international projects and networks, such as The Biennial of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean, the ERA, Erica, etc. Many authors that we work with have won numerous awards and accolades both at home and abroad.

Niso pa več z nami: Dušan Merklin Mik, Frenk Fidler, Irena Povše Buba, Karmen Jernejčič, Milan Štefe, Neda Pagon, Taja Vidmar Brejc, Tomaž Pengov, Ivan Volarič Feo, Zoja Skušek … – are no longer with us
