11.10.24 13.10.24
Between 11 and 13 October, ´ace participated in the Open Portfolio FIG Bilbao, a meeting of emerging printmaking arts for the professionalisation of its participants. There, our Executive Coordinator, Andrés Knob, acted as a jury member together with Diana Chow (artist and curator) and Miriam Alzuri (curator of the Museum of Fine Arts in Bilbao). He also participated in a panel on the international printmaking art circuit moderated by David Arteagoitia, with the participation of Jordi Vilella (Ca la Rosa, Catalonia) and Eduardo Loreto (Basque Biodesign Center, Euskadi).
The jury chose, among the 16 artists present, 6 artists to participate with a personal space at the FIG Bilbao fair, to be held at the same Palacio Euskalduna on November 28, 29, 30 and December 1, 2024. In addition, and thanks to the collaboration with the CCEBA–Centro Cultural de España en Buenos Aires, Fundación´ace awarded a prize to Claudia Guixot (Valencia). This award includes a 4-week Production Residency at ´ace’s studio, accommodation during the 4 weeks, airfare Valencia-Buenos Aires and a per diem for the artist, as well as technical and conceptual accompaniment and the common materials, printmaking tools and inks found in our workshop.
