Balkans 4: Unexpected Delight at Ljubljana (巴爾幹半島之行-4 盧比安娜之驚喜)

When I was in Ljubljana, I was in for lots of surprises. I found that its people simply love images and decorations.


What an idea for a window display at a watch selling shop


Some graffiti I found on the cover of some kind of cabinet for cables


Another graffiti


This shop hidden inside a courtyard also got painting on its walls


I found this poster of an art exhibition in a square


I got in a small museum and found this painting upon its wall, presumably the artist's mental picture of what's going on inside the concert hall of the Slovenia Philharmonic which I saw earlier in that morning?  The building on the right of the painting looks like the Ljubljnana University.


The country being invaded by the Ottoman Turks?


The Slovenes being ordered to do work for the invading Romans soldiers?


A well in the forecourt


This is the courtyard of the Museum. One sees a maps, presumably of the city of Ljubljana. There's a river curving around the old town. There are beautiful patterns upon the external faces of the walls separated by Arabian/Turkish arches.


In the courtyard, there's a ceramic exhibition by various artists


Another corner of the courtyard


One of the exhibits at the ceramic exhibition by local artists which was then in full swing: beautiful tail feathers and some upon the head too!.


A working class lady resting from work?


a weasel or rodent in a robe?

A mock ancient pot with traditional patterns.


A swan/peilcan with which is trying to find its balance upon the ground by Biserka Filipan-Kraljic 2013?


Ceramc "reproduction" of the splash of a drop of water falling upon the surface of a  pond. by Irena Yvertep 2013?


old fashioned pitchers?


A shell with many eyes? Vaza by Marjeta Basa 2013

A book filled with foam?



On 2013 by Ljubica Zgonec Zorko: ceramic posing as tree barks?



an original sculpture at a corner of the courtyard


There is another exhibition at another room of the museum about marbles with painting and real stones

One of the paintings with a polished stone-like feel


You can see the lines and the textures of this one


This one is unusual, it got strings attached to its sides


Another one with strings below

This one is in red, black and brown


This one is in orange black and brown with strings at its side?


This one is in brown and black with tiny dots in other colors


This one is in light blue, pink, black and brown


This one is different again, as if a cross section but with covers. It seems that there is no end to man's imagination upon what he may find interesting. 


This is the poster about the exhbition of "glass and large format graphics" entitled "Fly or Stuck" by Meta Kastelic.


The visitor's book at the entrance to the exhibition


the images seem all about man's condition: solitary men and women caught  by the constraints of life. This woman has to cover her body dress and a veil. Has she just got married? The images all appear to be deliberately slightly off focus


This one appears to be the image of man and a woman both stuck on the cross in a bed

 

A woman is shown on a bed of sand


She looks like she had been nailed on a cross too on that bed of sand

This one shows her to be moving her hands on the sand as if trying to describe a pair of wings


 She has finally succeeded in describing a full circle above her head


This one shows that she has finally managed to achieve a standing position, away from the bed. 


Some of the old buildings have got some stone pillar carved with simple figures just under the corridor of the buildings lining the sidewalks  of the street paved with cobble stones


This one seems to be a laughing man

This one looks like a nun


This one has a tighter expression


The cartoon found on the window of a clinic probably about diabetes in the early stages

The diabetes has stood up for itself


The diabetes is attacking its owner


I don't know what this is all about. Probably advising people to do some cycling? Note: Thanks to Chiugor, it's a notice advising cyclists to park their bikes elsewhere and not in front of the showcases.


Everywhere I went, I saw flowers and plants


At the corner of every shop


On shopfronts

On restaurant tables


on tables displaying wines


And even around shaded restaurant stands on the street. 

(To be cont'd)
