The travelling exhibition “Soil Art Tales: Living Ecosystems for Shared Futures” continues its journey across Europe with its third stop at the Posavski muzej Brežice / Water Tower (Slovenia), from 10 September to 18 October 2026. As a member of the WAMU+NET network, the museum provides a particularly meaningful setting for this new chapter of the exhibition.
Following its great success at the Serralves Foundation in Porto (February–April 2026) and at Villa Altieri in Rome (May–June 2026), the exhibition arrives in Brežice as part of its wider European tour. More information about the exhibition and its previous stops is available on the dedicated WAMU+NET webpage.
Organised by WAMU+NET within the framework of the EU-funded SoilTribes project, and curated by Stefano Cagol, the exhibition brings together the work of four internationally recognised artists from different generations: Binta Diaw (IT/SN), Nikki Lindt (NL/US), Jo Pearl (UK), and Miguel Teodoro (PT). Through installations, video, photography, and research-based practices, the exhibition explores soil as a living system — a vital yet often overlooked ally in building more sustainable futures.
The artworks presented invite visitors to reflect on soil as a living archive of memory, knowledge, and ecological processes, highlighting its deep connections with water systems, climate change, food production, and the cultural histories of communities and landscapes. In line with the broader mission of the SoilTribes project — to establish, activate, and empower “glocal” ecosystems — the exhibition promotes new ways of understanding and valuing soil through the intersection of science, technology, and creative expression.
As in previous venues, the exhibition in Brežice will be accompanied by a programme of educational activities organised by the host museum, engaging local audiences and fostering awareness around soil health and sustainability.
The exhibition will open on 10 September 2026 with a guided tour led by curator Stefano Cagol, offering visitors a unique opportunity to engage directly with the curatorial vision behind the project.
Updates on this stop can be followed on the museum’s website.
Stay tuned for upcoming stops of the exhibition throughout 2026 and 2027!
