ABOUT US

Bunker is a non-profit organization for the realization and organization of cultural events, established by Nevenka Koprivšek in 1997. Bunker produces and presents contemporary theatre and dance performances, organizes different workshops and other educational programmes with a special focus on cultural and artistic education, participates in or leads numerous international projects, organizes international discursive forums and discussion evenings, and produces one of the most prominent international contemporary performing arts festivals – the Mladi Levi Festival.

Since 2004, the Old Power Station – Elektro Ljubljana has been managed and curated by Bunker as a venue dedicated to contemporary performing arts. In 2026, the Old Power Station enters a new experimental programming and management model. After 20 years of operation and at the conclusion of the current five-year management mandate of Bunker, we have established an experimental management model developed and piloted by a consortium of five organizations: Bunker, Maska, Emanat, Mesto žensk, and Nomad Dance Academy Slovenija. In 2026, the partner organizations of the consortium enter the venue with their own programs, knowledge, experience, and international networks, while also collaborating in the development of transversal programs.

The Old Power Station is a space for contemporary perfroming arts. It is buzzing with activities: several groups use it as their rehearsal venue; it is a place for different workshops, which range from cultural management to dance techniques, while in the evening, the power station is a venue for various contemporary performances and other multimedia events.

The programme in the Old Power Station is a combination of international performances, presented in the frame of various festivals, as well as a selection of interesting Slovene contemporary artists. The red thread of all events in The Old Power Station is the desire to explore and move the boundaries of the aesthetic and the expected, as well as the desire for engagement in the local and global environment. 

Since 2024, the Old Power Station has been awarding the yearly Golden Lighting awards to the most outstanding events and artists presented at the venue in the last season.
