Lehmann Gallery wins Prix Solo artgenève-FPJourne

The artgenève Contemporary Art Exhibition was held last month in Palexpo, Geneva, which is the third time that FPJourne has presented the "Prix Solo artgenève-FPJourne" award. The accreditation unit selected the best of the 30 art galleries for a special exhibition. Gallery Gebrϋder Lehmann won the prize with the work of artist Eberhard Havekost.

The jury of Prix Solo artgenève-FPJourne was composed of three major European heavyweights - Curator of François Pinault's exhibition Caroline Bourgeois, Andrea Bellini, Director of the Center for Contemporary Art, Geneva, and Nicolaus Schafhausen, Kunsthalle Wien, Director of the Vienna Museum of Fine Arts. FPJourne subscribed to Eberhard Havehost's "orange night" (1987, mixed media, affixed to cardboard) from the winners and was donated to the Geneva Contemporary Art Fund. 2016 artgenève contemporary art exhibition brings together 80 galleries worldwide exhibiting up to 700 artists and a series of "time" themed exhibits and performances. The artist Christian Waldvogel and FPJourne joined hands to re-interpret the Pendule de Foucault as a work of art entitled "The Tides of Andromeda." FPJourne will bring more promises to the arts and will become a partner to the Monte Carlo Art Show. The art exhibition will be held from April 30 to May 2 at the Grimaldi Forum Art Center in Morocco.
