Louis Vuitton Watch Prize for Independent Creatives
Louis Vuitton announced the establishment of the Louis Vuitton Watch Prize for Independent Creatives, to be awarded on a biennial basis. Organised by La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton in Geneva, the prize is founded on values inherent in the watchmaker’s passion for innovation and constant quest for excellence. Through this initiative, La Fabrique du Temps intends to celebrate the creative talent, savoir-faire, and audacity of the independent watchmaking industry, to support and encourage artisans and entrepreneurs, as well as accompany future generations.
La Fabrique du Temps preserves a unique approach to watchmaking and continues to operate like an independent Manufacture. Built on a taste for innovation, audacity and savoir-faire, it is led by a team of master watchmakers who bring exceptional timepieces to life one by one, from beginning to end. It is in with this purpose in mind that the enterprise has created Louis Vuitton Watch Prize for Independent Creatives.
The award is open to all: watchmakers, designers, entrepreneurs, recent graduates, creatives from all around the world. To evaluate their submissions, Louis Vuitton has convened a committee of 50 industry experts who share a passion for watchmaking innovation and creativity. The committee includes specialised journalists along with experts, artisans, artists and collectors.
Candidates may register online on the dedicated Louis Vuitton Watch Prize website (www.louisvuittonwatchprize.com) and submit their creative projects from beginning of 2023 through the end of May 2023.
