Taste at Artgenève 2015 – an exhibition in contemporary craft
29 January – 1 February 2015
We are delighted to be able to announce that Taste has been selected by Artgenève to curate a special exhibition in contemporary craft at the 4th edition of this international art fair.
Artgenève is the most important event of its kind in the French-speaking part of Switzerland. Keeping current with the global art scene and its own growing international following the fair will present a diverse selection of leading international dealers and galleries.
Our invitation to participate derives from the success of the first edition of Taste held in January 2014. To be offered the opportunity, in our first year, to present what we consider to be the best in contemporary craft alongside fine art and established galleries, is further confirmation of the ascending star of contemporary craft.
Our selection will include works by a number of artists from our last exhibition as well as several new names. The focus remains on high quality, unique objects chosen for their importance, innovation and craftsmanship and selected from across a range of craft disciplines.
We champion the work of craft artists who push the boundaries. We include artists from across all craft disciplines many of whom are already established, with works in museums and private collection, as well as up-and-coming artists. Foremost, we are committed to promoting important and innovative craft that is exciting, intriguing and challenges our assumptions about what is possible.
Taste aims to stage at least one major European exhibition annually that highlights a broad selection of craft disciplines. Taste will also host more exclusive, thematic events throughout the year with a focus on specific artists or disciplines. Our ambition is to be a premier source for cutting-edge contemporary craft.
