"MASTERWORK, objets de créateurs européens"
March 7 - March 29, 2008, Exhibition in Paris, France -
( Best of European Contemporary Crafts II )
The WCC-Europe exhibition "Best of European Contemporary Crafts" shown at the
occasion of the "Mind & Matter" fair in Luxembourg in October 2007 has had a second
edition this year, March 2008, in Paris, and was shown under the title:
"MASTERWORK, objets de créateurs européens"
Opening: March 6, 2008 / Duration: March 7 - March 29, 2008
"MASTERWORK, objets de créateurs européens" was presented in co-operation
with our French National Entity, Ateliers d'Art de France (AAF), in an especially rented
gallery room at the "Viaduc des Arts" (near Gare de Lyon) in Paris.
This second edition offered the possibility to those entities of WCC-Europe not
already participating in the existing selection to join and to participate in Paris.
Our new entity in Spain "Oficio Y Arte" did so and presented 5 candidates from
their country. Two of them have been accepted and will show their works in the
Paris exhibition.
The exhibition MASTERWORK is a combination of objects from "Best of European
Contemporary Crafts" ( a selection of WCC-Europe first shown at the Mind&Matter
fair in Luxembourg 2007) and of a number of objects originating from French
craftspeople chosen by AAF, French entity of WCC-Europe.
