Incalmi has entered into a partnership with Arte Laguna Prize, the international art competition promoted by the cultural association MoCA - Modern Contemporary Art in Venice to enhance contemporary art. In the 2023/2024 edition, one of the prizes will be awarded to a work using the technique of fire enamel on copper.
The competition, which has been held annually since 2006, is open to everyone, with no limits of age, gender or nationality, and the theme is free. The exhibition of the works of the 120 finalists will be held at the Arsenale in Venice, while the winner of the Special Prize Incalmi, in addition to a cash prize, will see his or her work-a specific project or design product in the field of lighting, giftware or furniture-made in the workshop of Incalmi.
For our company, which has always thrived on the highest expressions of human creativity-art, architecture, design, decorative arts, fashion-the partnership with Arte Laguna Prize aims to connect with talented artists and designers, as well as to raise awareness and appreciation of fire enamel on copper, an ancient technique that Incalmi itself has rescued from oblivion.
