From 24 November 2024 to 16 February 2025, a major exhibition bringing together some of the finest makers on the contemporary applied arts scene will be held at the Anciens Abattoirs in Mons. This sixth edition will showcase around one hundred unique pieces by 58 artists from 16 different European countries. Two prizewinners will each be awarded 3.500€, thanks to the support of the World Craft Council Europe and the Ministry of Culture of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles.
The exhibition aims to show some of the finest work produced in Europe, displaying a range of perfectly mastered techniques with high aesthetic standards. Ceramics, glass, metal, wood and paper crafts and contemporary jewellery, will all be represented. Besides the skills required to produce these creations, their contemporariness is an important element. Current makers are going beyond the traditional codes and thinking “outside the box”. New materials and new techniques are being incorporated into the traditional recipes to create an art form that is both modern and ancient, codified and reactionary.
For a re-evaluation of the true worth of the mastery of skill, BeCraft has awarded a new title to its event: MAESTRIA.
Awards & Opening: 23.11.2024, 19:00
Two Prizes of €3500 are awarded to the laureates thanks to the support of the World Craft Council Europe and Ministry of Culture of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles.
