We are all familiar with Muster’s classic Zvitorepec (Curvytail), which stubbornly withstands the test of time in spite of the internet and computers, and that is awaiting ever more reprints, and we all remember reading about Kos’s mischievous brats in Kavboj Pipec in Rdeča pesa (Cowboy Penknife and Beetroot) when we were still in elementary school. They helped us turn tedious data-learning into fun endeavours. What is less known is the fact that - alongside the humorous and adventure comics - Slovenia also developed a genre of socially critical comics. The exhibition showcases Smrekar’s comics dating to 1914, in which he ridiculed the Austrian petit bourgeoisie and false morals, Bambič’s parody of Mussolini from 1927 and the partisan propaganda comics by Ive Šubic dating to 1944. The 1950s bore a popular trend of short, satirical comics, which used benevolent critique of the contemporary state affairs to manifest the syntagma of socialism with a human face. One of the best known promotors of the new system was Milan Maver’s Jaka Sulc. The turbulent year of 1968 also left a mark on Slovenian comics, for it was in this year that Kostja Gatnik drew nonconformist comics in the American underground style. These comics were published in 1977 in his legendary Magna Purga, which pushed the Slovenians into the forefront of the extremely powerful Yugoslavian scene that competed with European and American comics of that period. With Magna Purga, the Slovenian comics lost their virginity and became adults, i.e. full members of the urban (sub)culture. Socially critical comics experienced their biggest boom during the second half of the 1980s and in the 1990s, when Mladina’s (weekly magazine) authors created works with no respect towards the state, church or sexuality. One of the best-known products of that period, still published even today, is Tomaž Lavrič’s Diareja (Diarrhoea), which represents the guilty conscience of Slovenian politics and society, and is able to teach us more about our semi-recent history than all history books put together. The socially critical comics exhibition showcases the historic development of comics on our territory and depicts the social and political life throughout the 20th century. Comics are a weapon, so reach out for them and take a look at the display!

The book presents the history of political, socially critical and engaged comics in Slovenia. It is written by comics author and historian Iztok Sitar and is richly illustrated. "There are not many examples in the world in which the comics history of a nation begins with political, illegal comics that defy the regime and are explicitly left-wing. However, this was the case in the territory covered by present-day Slovenia where comics started with Smrekar’s and Bambič’s satirical comics. On the other hand, it is likely that no other medium was so harshly stigmatized by the official culture in Slovenia." is the beginning of the book by the comics author and historian Iztok Sitar.
