culture:
Culture – and within it, creative production – brings people together, by uniting common interests and providing a dedicated avenue of expression by and through which people create, explore, communicate, cooperate and share. Culture and the communication of cultural activity has widespread, far-reaching implications and potential – within the country, across the region and the in wider, expanded European context and beyond.
BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI is an important voice for the area, for the region in general and for those involved – and interested – in the many facets or expressions of culture and creative production. BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI is the only such voice-window of its kind in Europe. BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI has no fixed slant, perspective nor agenda – except our requirement that the subject be somehow compelling, interesting, provocative, engaging and/or telling. This flexible curiosity means our interest and editorial attention covers the entire range of output and activity, from high to low, from high-production values to the simplest of gestures. How else could we find and develop subjects as diverse, typical and exceptional, as beehive art, kozolec, gypsy musicals, digital art, psychoanalysis, shoes, viticulture, baby carriages, new social housing and border crossings, advertising and alternative radio, scenography, urban planning and lighting – all between the same covers; similar yet different, contrasting and complementary?How else, where else, but a a platform like BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI?
BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI focuses regionally on Southeastern Europe, looking at creative production within the framework of fashion, architecture, design, art & culture and lifestyle. In addition, it broadens the framework or program to include people, phenomena and places which are typical yet special – even unique – to Southeastern Europe.
Slovenia & BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI
Slovenia represents an important experience within the context of both Southeastern Europe and the newer EU Member States. New challenges demand – and produce – new, creative solutions and expressions. Slovenian culture and creativity have an impact, an influence, on Southeastern Europe. The Slovenian experience represents a collection, a diversity of peoples, regions and practices. The Slovenian experience matters; BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI shares the experience. This creative, cultural expression has an influential role in the Alpe-Adria region, as it shares with, borrows from and gives back to the region in countless valuable, tangible ways. This produces a rich mix of cultural expression, of creative production, which BIG CREATIVE INDUSTRIES.SI develops into engaging and informative content.
