Architect Matevž Čelik, a former director of the Museum of Architecture and Design (MAO) in Ljubljana, was picked as one of the curators of the Romanian city of Timisoara’s 2023 European Capital of Culture project.
Čelik, 50, will be in charge of the Connections section, where his focus will go beyond architecture to explore relations between the city, architecture, design and society. Heading MAO between 2010 in 2020, Čelik transformed it from a city museum into a major institution in the field.
