Petja Grafenauer, PhD (1976, Ljubljana) is a curator, writer, lecturer on contemporary art and magazine editor.
Her main fields of interest are the discourse and practices of visual art, especially painting in the second half of the twentieth century, focusing on the regional, ex-socialist history of art discourses and practices of the 20th and 21st century.
Born in Ljubljana, Slovenia (at that time Yugoslavia) her social and professional life is formed in the zone of transition of postcapitalism and continues in the wild swirl of neoliberalism and the collapse of the welfare state. The social tissue of society is changing around her, affecting relationships, ways of thinking, living, behaving, talking, affecting our lives ... the projects she gets involved in are not indifferent to this.
