Laibach
Laibach is a music and cross-media group from Slovenia established in 1980 in Trbovlje.
The name of the band is the historic German version of the name Slovenia's capital Ljubljana.
From the start Laibach has developed a "Gesamtkunstwerk" - multi-disciplinary art practice in all fields ranging from popular culture to art (collages, photo-copies, posters, graphics, paintings, videos, installations, concerts and performances).
Since their beginnings the group was associated and surrounded with controversy, provoking strong reactions from political authorities of former Yugoslavia and in particular in the Socialist Republic of Slovenia.
Their militaristic self-stylisation, propagandist manifestos and totalitarian statements have raised many debates on their actual artistic and political positioning. Many important theorists, among them Boris Groys and Slavoj Žižek.
