We are presenting our collections.
September 2021 marks the 40th anniversary of the passing of Rudi Kosmač, a master of the artistic word, whose acting was particularly notable in his interpretation of poetry. Next to performing in his home theater, the Slovenian National Theater Drama Ljubljana, he was also active on experimental stages, from Oder 57 to Experimental Theater Glej. Furthermore, he lectured the artistic word at the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television with extreme sensitivity, and greatly contributed to the field of literary expression and to the culture of speech in general with his recitative strength, especially in the medium of radio. Kosmač also created memorable roles in film and television.
In his “Word of Farewell”, Lado Kralj, the then artistic director of SNT Drama Ljubljana, uttered: “Rudi Kosmač unconditionally believed in theater and in poetry, his striving burned out in this faith, he believed in the mission of theater, far from any pathetic undertone, he believed in theater's commitment to nation, history and to the present moment.”
