History

  1. Alenka graduated in 1941 and became a painter. She was on vacation in Ljubljana when Germany attacked the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (6 April 1941). The Kingdom of Yugoslavia capitulated 17 days after Germany’s attack and this was a huge disappointment for Alenka. Ljubljana, situated in the Italian occupied zone, was the centre of the resistance movement and headquarters for Partisans. Following the arrest of her father in early 1944, she had to go into underground. After four months in hiding, she left Ljubljana and joined the partisans in the summer of 1944. She worked in the partisans print, with graphics, leaflets, posters and propaganda. She was active as a cultural worker and created scenes for several plays. Alenka married Vito Globočnik, also a Partisan, but lost him soon after the war due to illness. The most beautiful day in her life was the day she returned to a liberated Ljubljana, on 9th May 1945. Alenka worked as a teacher of art up until her retirement, and since then has been painting landscapes.

  2. Alenka Gerlovič se je rodila 1919 v Ljubljani.Tu tudi živi že celo povojno obdobje. Pred 2.svetovno vojno je študirala v Zagrebu na Akademiji za likovno umetnost.Leta 1941 je diplomirala in postala slikarka. V času nemškega napada na Kraljevino Jugoslavijo, 6.aprila 1941, je bila v Ljubljani na počitnicah. Za Alenko je bila kapitulacija Kraljevine Jugoslavije po sedemnajstih dneh ogromno razočaranje. Ljubljana, ki jo je okupiral italijanski okupator, je bila središče odporniškega gibanja in sedež osrednjega vodstva Osvobodilne fronte in partizanskih enot. Po aretaciji očeta v začetku leta 1944, je morala preiti v strogo ilegalo. Po štirih mesecih skrivanja je s ponarejenimi dokumenti zapustila Ljubljano in se poleti 1944 pridružila partizanom. Delala je pri partizanskem tisku in grafiki.Tu je oblikovala letake, posterje in skrbela za propagando. Kot kulturna delavka je tudi ustvarjala scenografije za različne dramske uprizoritve. V partizanih se je poročila s partizanom Vitom Globočnikom, ki pa je kmalu po vojni zaradi bolezni umrl.Vrnitev v osvobojeno Ljubljano, 9.maja 1945, ji predstavlja najlepši dan v njenem življenju.Do upokojitve je poučevala likovno vzgojo. Od takrat pa se posveča svojemu osnovnemu poklicu-slikanju krajin.
