About the group commercial exhibition Fresh Fish

In addition to being an exhibition and project space, DobraVaga is also a commercial gallery. Three times a year, the DobraVaga collective selects works by Slovenian artists and displays it as part of the exhibition series Fresh Fish. These curated commercial exhibitions mainly provide a glimpse of the “novelties” in graphic arts, drawing, illustration, and even painting, ensuring additional financial support for young artists by being part of the gallery’s commercial programme. This time the exhibition will focus on a selection of new productions, in the aim of refreshing the gallery space and website with new works and establishing cooperation with new artists.

Works of all techniques and themes are welcome, and the call is open to young visual artists up to the age of 40 from the Slovenian creative space.
