F.P.Journe sponsors The Prix Solo artgenève

The salon artgenève, in Geneva, dedicated itself to four days of exhibiting contemporary art.  Inspired by the theme Centres & Péripheries, the Prix Solo artgenève-F.P.Journe rewarded the best monographic exhibition, presented by one of 30 participating galleries, to the Gallery Xippas for the work created by Lucas Samaras. The Prix Solo artgenève-F.P.Journe allows acquisitions by F.P.Journe of the winning artwork which is subsequently donated to the Geneva Cantonal Contemporary Art Fund. The Jury comprises of three major figures of the European Art scene: Caroline Bourgeois (Curator of the François Pinault Collection), Andrea Bellini (Director of the Geneva Center of Contemporary Art) and Nicolaus Schafhausen (Director of the Kunsthalle).
