After five years, the Kunsthalle Bratislava is again in danger. The institution has been struggling with budget problems, financial and personnel under-dimensions for a long time. Director Jen Kratochvíl resigned in January 2024. The Ministry of Culture announces the merger of KHB and SNG. The future of KHB is open and uncertain. The fate of this institution is to be decided by a working group.
How does the current management of the Ministry of Culture want to approach the Kunsthalle, or contemporary visual art in general? Does SNG have the personnel capacity to manage KHB? The creative community is calling for a dialogue that concerns not only the further operation of the Kunsthalle, but also other established institutions.
Come and discuss with us!
- The organizers of the discussion are AFAD anf the Otvorená Kultúra! platform.
