    Nice museum in the middle part of Park Tivoli. In front of the building there are stairs, which guarded by 4 dog-shaped statues. There is a fountain with some benches. Doesn't matter in which period you visit the place it will be always nice. If you arrive by car you can park in the northeast part of the park.

    A very nice museum with seasonal exhibits. Had the chance to spend part of my afternoon here and were able to see how details were carefully taken in consideration, specially with a good translation of all the content to English. The space was very well used to fit in a couple of exhibits and the cafe just at the museum’s doorstep was a nice touch.

    The International Graphic Art Center (abbreviation MGLC) is a museum and producer of graphic and contemporary art, based in Tivoli Castle, Ljubljana. It was founded on December 25, 1986 as a public municipal institution. The initiative for the establishment arose from the international success of the Ljubljana International Graphic Biennale. Thus, Slovenia's largest international art event got its own premises. It was first led by Zoran Kržišnik, between 2000 and 2010 by Lilijana Stepančič, then by Barbara Savenc and from 2011 by Nevenka Šivavec.

    Didn't know it was closed for refurbishment. Didn't say on the website. Would have loved to see it.

    Very nicely presented exhibitions. The location is perfect, they are presenting not only graphic arts but various fields of art, mostly contemporary conceptual artists.

    Great place for graphic art, and the current David Lynch exhibition was amazing. The park surrounding the place is splendid for reading a book or any other kind of leisure. :-)

    Great location and exhibitions worth going.

    Excellent art. Beautiful surroundings. Great film on Ireland. Interesting and powerful stuff. Play a subject/object game with Isidora on the ground floor. Do not miss the separate exhibitions in other locations. The National Gallery has powerful art, particularly 1941-45 photos. ljybljana is alawys a mind blower city, well designed, walking city where kids run loose on the streets...no cars to run then down. Art everywhere.

    I parked the car at the parking lot of the Tivoli as noted on the MGLC website. The doors of the parking lot were open and normally you don't have to pay a fee on Sundays. From there, it is was not easy to find the MGLC building if you haven't got a map or mobile internet. Especially for someone who wasn't there before. There were no signs which could help you. The house is located in the middle of the park. When I arrived at the building I couldn't find posters of the Graphic Biennial 2015. The people who worked there were very nice and friendly. After the lean exhibition I had to visit 3 other galleries that were randomly distributed in the city. Therefore I got a map but most of the street names were not shown on it. So it wasn’t easy to find the right places again. In summary, the exhibitions were not breathtakingly. The last time I visited the Biennale I found the quality of the works and the curation much more interesting.But I will try again. When I wanted to leave with my car i couldn't. They have closed the gates of the parking lot because of the ice hockey game. So if you have no card (because the gate was open when I arrived) you cannot leave and you only can get a card if you drive in with a car (sensor). A funny little game. After 15 minutes the employees of the security organisation finally found a solution and I could start my journey back to Austria.

    Good vibes in the museum itself plus there is a bar inside with an outside section too

    Not a large museum, which was quite pricey for the experience.
