The Day After?
With Andreja Hribernik and Daniel Muzyczuk
In the first panel, The Day After?, Andreja Hribernik and Daniel Muzyczuk address the impact of the Right’s electoral victories on museums. How can they continue raising difficult questions under right-wing governance? How can museums recover once power changes hands again?

From 2013 to 2022 she was the scientific, artistic, and commercial director of the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art Koroška, Slovenj Gradec.
