The secret project of the Epic Center

The article discusses the controversial 'Epic Center' project in Slovenia, highlighting concerns over transparency and accountability. Journalist Dr. Jože Dežman sent multiple inquiries to the project’s communication office between October 2016 and November 2025, seeking financial plans, content scenarios, collaborators, costs, and other details. The communication team initially responded vaguely, claiming the project was not secret and had been publicly presented, but failed to provide specific information. Dežman followed up, pointing out inconsistencies, such as the ongoing payments to Kaja Širok despite uncompleted work, and questioned whether contractual agreements were properly fulfilled. The article raises broader questions about the secrecy surrounding the project, including who approved the exhibition scenario and costs, and whether these remain state secrets. It also notes that while some information is available online, much remains anonymous.
