In 2023 the Danner Foundation is honouring exceptional achievements in craft at the Church of the Holy Spirit in Landshut, Germany, with the Danner Prize, four additional honorary awards, and a remarkable exhibition featuring a total of 42 artists.
This year Gunther Pfeffer receives the Danner Prize for his display cabinet 'Raster'. The unit comprises fir slats arranged in a grid, which, depending on the angle of view, reveal what is inside and render the grid visible, or obscure the view and meld into a single surface. The four honorary awards go to Christiane Englsberg's headdress 'Flle' made of rye straw, Beate Leonard's vase made of tombac, the ceramic installation 'Lined up' by Nico Schipp, and the 3D-illusion enamel brooches by Christoph Straube.
The objects are presented in the publication in large-format photographs and informative descriptions of the concepts. Personal statements by the artists provide insights into their various working methods. To conclude, texts by renowned authors look into the significance and development of handicraft today from different perspectives.
