Inaugurada la exposición del Loewe Craft Prize en Singapur

La Fundación Loewe inauguró este martes en Singapur su exposición anual del Craft Prize, marcando la primera vez que la muestra se presenta en el Sudeste Asiático. El ceramista surcoreano Jongjin Park recibió el primer premio de 50.000 euros por su escultura de porcelana y papel Strata of Illusion.

La exposición en la National Gallery Singapore presenta a 30 finalistas de 19 países y regiones, seleccionados de entre más de 5.100 propuestas de 133 naciones. El jurado, que incluyó a los nuevos codirectores creativos de Loewe, Jack McCollough y Lazaro Hernandez, elogió las obras por su destreza técnica y el uso innovador de materiales como el vidrio, la laca y la cerámica. Sheila Loewe, presidenta de la fundación, destacó el dinamismo creciente aportado por los nuevos directores y señaló la sólida representación de Corea del Sur con un total de seis finalistas. Se otorgaron menciones especiales al diseñador de joyas italiano Graziano Visintin y a los Baba Tree Master Weavers, con sede en Ghana, por un gran tapiz. La muestra estará abierta hasta el 14 de junio de 2026 y subraya la relevancia continua de la artesanía física en medio de los avances tecnológicos.
