Šum is a Ljubljana-based platform and a collective of agents operating between art, theory, and fiction.

Founded in 2013, Šum has since been publishing a journal, organising lectures, discussions and summer schools, producing podcasts and exhibitions, and developing new hybrid formats of mediation in and around contemporary art. We collaborate with various art institutions in Slovenia and abroad, accompanying exhibition programmes with special issues and events, bringing a distinct perspective shaped by Šum’s editors and writers.

Together with Projekt Atol, Šum runs Plaza Protocol's off-site exhibition formations, and co-organizes ARIA, a summer school designed as a role-playing game. In collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art in Ljubljana, we co-curate the Uglaševanja (Tuning) event series.

All of Šum’s content, including the printed journals, is available free of charge. Want to support what we do? You can donate here.

/SLO/

Šum je platforma in kolektiv akterjev, ki delujejo na presečišču umetnosti, teorije in fikcije.

Od leta 2013 izdajamo revijo, organiziramo predavanja, razprave in poletne šole, produciramo podkaste in razstave ter razvijamo nove hibridne formate mediiranja sodobne umetnosti. Sodelujemo z različnimi umetniškimi institucijami v Sloveniji in v tujini. Razstavne programe spremljamo s posebnimi številkami in dogodki, ki prinašajo svojevrstne perspektive, oblikovane z raziskovanjem uredništva in piscev Šuma.

Skupaj s Projektom Atol Šum pripravlja off-site razstavne formacije Plaza Protocol ter soorganizira poletno šolo ARIA. V sodelovanju z Moderno galerijo v Ljubljani sokurira serijo dogodkov Uglaševanja.

Vsa vsebina Šuma, vključno s tiskanimi revijami, je na voljo brezplačno. Če želite podpreti naše delo, lahko prispevate tukaj.
