You See Me - I See You: Cultural Diversity in the Eyes of the Roma

28th September - 15th October 2009

The exhibition “You See Me – I See You: Cultural Diversity in the Eyes of the Roma” explores the role of photography in the dissemination of negative images and stereotypes of the Roma, while also exploring how photography could help change views of Roma identity and culture. Several renowned Slovenian reporters want to contribute to the intercultural dialogue between the Roma and non-Roma, and change the public image of Roma, which would lead to more tolerant co-existence and respect for diversity.

The exhibition is organised by the Slovene Ethnographic Museum and the Faculty of Arts of the University of Ljubljana with the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Government Communication Office and the Ministry of Culture.
