GC38GN5 Slovene painters 2: Stane Kregar (Traditional Cache) in Slovenia created by icabrian

icabrian: Slabih osem let po tistem, ko je eden prvih najditeljev komentiral, da "na tem mestu ne bo zdržal dolgo", se zaklad res poslavlja. Glede na to, da galerija ni javno dsotopna, je bil ves čas ena dvoživka. Marsikoga je razveselil, tu in tam koga zjezil, na nekatere so med iskanjem padali martinčki. Vsem hvala za obisk.

Geocache Description:

Slovenski slikarji #2: Stane Kregar - prvi slovenski nadrealist
Slovene painters #2: Stane Kregar - first Slovene surrealist

Stane Kregar se je rodil 10. novembra 1905 v Zapužah pri Ljubljani. Leta 1917 se je vpisal na Škofijsko klasično gimnazijo v Ljubljani, po študiju na teološki fakulteti pa je leta 1930 odšel na Akademijo likovnih umetnosti v Pragi, kjer je diplomiral leta 1935. Kot slikar se je slovenski javnosti prvič predstavil z razstavo v Jakopičevem paviljonu leta 1936. Med študijem v Pragi se je navdušil za modernizem in se pridružil češki kubisticni šoli, nato pa je razmeroma hitro prešel v nadrealizem (k temu ga je močno spodbudilo bivanje v Parizu leta 1937) in prinesel v slovensko slikarstvo nov način podajanja in nove vsebine. V letih 1936-1945 je bil profesor risanja na Škofijski klasični gimnaziji. Tik pred 2. svetovno vojno se vrnil v barvni realizem, okoli leta 1950 pa se je z usmeritvijo v abstraktno njegovo slikarstvo dokončno odmaknilo od vidne resničnosti. Vseskozi je bil izredno plodovit na področju religioznega slikarstva in s številnimi barvnimi okni, freskami, mozaiki, oltarnimi slikami in liturgičnimi oblacili neizbrisno zaznamoval sodobno slovensko cerkveno umetnost. Umrl je 1. avgusta 1973 v Ljubljani.

Galerija Staneta Kregarja v Zavodu Sv. Stanislava je bila ustanovljena leta 1993. V njej je stalna zbirka 85 umetniških del, ki predstavljajo vse značilne faze slikarjevega dela, od nadrealizma do abstraktnega slikarstva. Dela so Zavodu podarili slikarjevi dediči. Ogled galerije je sicer mogoč (najbolje ob vikendih, ko v prostorih ni pouka), vendar individualnih ogledov doslej niso bili vajeni. Lahko pa si ogledate spletno razlicico.

Stane Kregar was born on November 10, 1905 in Zapuže near Ljubljana. From 1917 he attended Diocesan Classical Gymnasium in Ljubljana and after studying theology in 1930 left to study at the Fine Arts Academy in Prague, where he graduated in 1935. His first exhibition in Ljubljana was held in Jakopic's Pavilion in 1936. During studies in Prague he adopted modernism and joined Czech cubist school, but quickly moved to surrealism (encouraged especially by a visit to Paris in 1937), introducing it as a new style and new subject in Slovene painting. In the years 1936-1945 he was teaching art at the Diocesan Classical Gymnasium. Shortly before WWII he returned to colourful realism, but moved away from visual reality with a radical step into abstract painting around 1950. Prolific throughout his life in sacral painting, his stained windows, frescoes, mosaics, altar paintings and liturgical clothing established him as one of the most important authors in modern Slovene sacral art. Stane Kregar died on August 1, 1973 in Ljubljana.

Stane Kregar Gallery in St. Stanislav's Institution (Zavod Sv. Stanislava) was established in 1993. It holds a permanent exhibition of 85 paintings, donated by artist's heirs, that represent the most typical styles of his painting from surrealism to abstraction. Gallery is generally open to public (best on weekends), but individual visits haven't been much practised. Virtual gallery, however, is always open.
