Invitation to the opening of the exhibition

Architectural heritage through the lens of Nace Šumi and today

In the year of the 100th anniversary of his birth, the rich photographic archive of Nace Šumi stimulated the idea to review the state of the architectural heritage at the Kranj Branch of the IPCHS.

Selected archive images, made from black and white 6×6 negatives, are shown in the company of cut-outs from digital records made this year. The changing heritage over a period of fifty years is thus shown through an elegant and precise record. Each heritage has its own story, which is preserved for posterity through photographic documentation.

During conservation and restoration work in 2018, the Aljaž Tower was mechanically cleaned and newly protected with light and dark grey protective coatings. Before being reinstalled on top of Triglav, the tower was analytically examined using various portable instruments. This approach makes it possible to determine the material composition and document the initial condition of the new coatings, which provides an important basis for monitoring the condition and planning future conservation and restoration work on the Aljaž Tower.
