THE LEOPOLD BLOOM ART AWARD
supported by the Maurice Ward Group
The Leopold Bloom Art Award is aimed at supporting progressive contemporary visual artists in Hungary and their presence in the international art scene. In autumn 2011, the award will be granted for the first time as a result of the co-operation between the Ludwig Museum, ACAX | Agency for Contemporary Art Exchange and the Irish Maurice Ward Group.
Visual artists based in Hungary can apply for the 10,000 euro award with the proposal of an international exhibition of their paintings or individual illustrations taking place in a renowned European art institution (museum, commercial or non-profit gallery) or prestigious international event (biennial, festival) of their choice. The award does not only go to support the work of the winning artist, but also helps in the successful realization of the proposed concept of the exhibition. In doing so, we hope to contribute to the more intensive involvement of contemporary Hungarian artists in the international art scene.  http://leopoldbloomaward.com/

Fragile Absolutes

21.01.10

In the months before we moved Alan Phelanʼs exhibition from IMMA, Dublin to the Chapter Arts Centre, Cardiff, we met with Alan at IMMA and his studio discussing all aspects of ʻFragile Absolutesʼ to determine how and where each piece of sculpture or installation would be wrapped and handled.

The exhibits are quite varied and range from heavy sculptures to paper mache works, video installation and suspended pieces which meant that our expertise in handling packing crating and transporting art was extremely valuable. 

Our team really appreciate Alanʼs art and were able to act as a ʻsafe pair of handsʼ guaranteeing it was handled and delivered in perfect condition.

You can see Alanʼs art on his website www.alanphelan.com
