Loewe Craft Prize-utställning öppnar i Singapore

Loewe Foundation öppnade sin årliga Craft Prize-utställning i Singapore på tisdagen, vilket markerar utställningens första framträdande i Sydostasien. Den sydkoreanske keramikern Jongjin Park tog emot förstapriset på 50 000 euro för sin porslins- och pappersskulptur Strata of Illusion.

Utställningen på National Gallery Singapore visar verk av 30 finalister från 19 länder och regioner, utvalda bland över 5 100 bidrag från 133 nationer. Juryn, som inkluderade Loewes nya kreativa chefer Jack McCollough och Lazaro Hernandez, hyllade verken för deras tekniska skicklighet och innovativa användning av material som glas, lack och keramik. Sheila Loewe, stiftelsens ordförande, lyfte fram den växande dynamik som de nya cheferna bidragit med och noterade den starka representationen från Sydkorea med totalt sex finalister. Hedersomnämnanden gick till den italienska smyckedesignern Graziano Visintin och de Ghana-baserade Baba Tree Master Weavers för en stor vävnad. Utställningen pågår till den 14 juni 2026 och understryker det fysiska hantverkets fortsatta relevans i en tid av tekniska framsteg.
