Can I present the work simultaneously to another prize?
No, it is not possible to present the same work simultaneously to another prize.
Can I participate with a work that has been previously exhibited?
Yes, it may have been previously exhibited in galleries, institutions, etc., but it cannot have won an award. Works selected as finalists in previous calls of this competition will not be admitted either.
Can I participate with a work that has been created more than 5 years ago?
No, it must be a recent creation, from the last 5 years.
My work has some industrial components, can I participate?
Yes, the work must be handmade or partly handmade by the participant. It may have some industrial components.
I have created and designed the craft work I want to present, but I have not actually made it myself. I subcontracted the making process. Can I participate?
No, you must also be the maker of the work presented.
We are two makers and together we have created a small company. Can we participate?
Yes, you can, but as a group of two makers, not as a company. This prize recognizes individuals, not companies of any kind.
We are two makers and as a group we are going to present a work. We are from Finland
and Norway. We live and work in London. Which country should we fill out in the form as the country of entry?
We recommend you fill out the country you wish to represent or which you think your work
represents best, because of your nationality or your country of residency.
What is the artistic name of the maker or group?
It is the name with which you first want to be referred to in this prize. If you are an individual maker, your name and artistic name might or might not be the same. If you present the work as a group, your artistic name might be all your individual names or perhaps you have an artistic name as a group.
If we participate as a group, who would receive the prize money?
Unless otherwise specified by the spokesperson of the group, the amount would be divided between the number of makers in the group and transferred to each maker.
When and how will the winners be notified?
The Loewe Founation will get in touch with all the Finalists using the telephone number and/or email provided in the entry form after the Experts Panel selects the shortlist in January. The winner will be contacted the same way after the Jury reaches their decision in May. All Finalists may be required to be present in the deliberation event in which the winner will be announced.
Is there a registration fee?
