Open Call for Preziosa Young Design Competition 2021

For each edition, an international jury composed of curators, artists, and critics select a small number of young artists from all those who have submitted their candidature.
The names of the jurors who took part in the previous selections can be seen here.
Selected artists will be exhibited in specially designed exhibition spaces at PREZIOSA Exhibition, Florence Jewellery Week (www.preziosa.org).
A high-quality catalog will be published, to introduce the selected artists with a short biography, full-color images, and a description of the work.

The selection will be based on:

• The quality of design and manufacture of the pieces;
• The contemporary use of the materials;
• The conceptual and technical innovation.

The contest provides a high level of quality, both conceptual and technical.
The participants are young professionals, who already have their own activity and a demonstrable curriculum.
Therefore, PY is not suitable for students who still attend schools or academies or recently graduated.

We invite worldwide artists, goldsmiths, silversmiths, designers, and young professionals to present projects that illustrate the work in which they are currently involved. PY is not suitable for students or recently graduated. Candidates must not be more than 35 years old in 2021.
