On March 8th of this year, Mrs. Alenka Bartl, the grande dame of Slovenian costume design, passed away. In her fifty-five years of creative work, she designed more than 500 theatrical costumes, participated in around forty film and television productions, and laid the foundations of the Slovenian Department of Costume Design (and Set Design) at the AGRFT.
In 2012, SLOGI, in collaboration with the National Gallery, prepared a large retrospective exhibition Alenka Bartl, Costume Designer. The SLOGI Icon Library – Theatre Museum houses more than 2,600 costume sketches from her rich creative oeuvre.
