At the exhibition and in the catalog Let's go to Borštnik! – on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the festival, we have prepared them for the Slovenian Theatre Institute, the Museum of National Liberation Maribor and the SNG Maribor, the Borštnik's Meeting Festival in cooperation with Slovenian theatres, Prodok Teatr TV, the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television and the Historical Archive of Celje (our partners in the e-exhibition are also the Novi ZATO Institute and RTV Slovenia – Radio Slovenia) – we present the creation, development and atmosphere of the festival, while at the same time we want to capture the "spirit of the times" ("zeitgeist", as older Maribor residents would say), draw a parallel between the festival events and the life of Maribor. On the other hand, we are interested in the festival from the perspective of the history of Slovenian theatre – we highlight the best performances and pay special attention to the recipients of the Borštnik Ring, the most important Slovenian award for acting achievements. This part of the exhibition is also available in a virtual version on the website sigledal.org.
