Maribor has a specific urban history, connected with an accelerated industrialisation from the middle of the 19th century on. Similarly as other towns along larger rivers, Maribor, too, developed on one (left) of the Drava banks in the Middle Ages, while the other (right) bank remained a space for the settlement of the rural character. By constructing the railway Vienna – Trieste, which reached Maribor in 1846, the right Drava bank began to develop in a distinctive industrial region with communities for workmen. From that time on the town authorities have been trying to create links between two town regions which preserved their own character.

F.28 Organising an exhibition
The 2 x 19 exhibition is a result of the extended project group and their educational cooperation with students of Art History at the Faculty of Arts, University of Maribor. It is a selection of works by 19 former students of the Faculty of Education who continued their studies at art academies. The exhibition is a continuation of similarly planed exhibition (2x12) in 2011. Both exhibitions strengthen our conviction that Faculty of Education was and still is an important art center in Maribor.
