F.P.Journe, a name synonymous with impeccable craftsmanship and horological innovation, is now making waves in the art world. The brand has officially launched the MAZE/Art Awards, recognizing the talented Victor Fidelis for his captivating work ‘No limit do privado‘. The award ceremony unfolded during the second edition of MIRA in Paris – an art fair devoted to showcasing the contemporary Latin American scene.
For over a decade, F.P.Journe has been an ardent supporter of the arts, contributing to prominent museums and institutions through various prizes. Now, through the MAZE collective, founded by the visionary Thomas Hug, the brand takes a bold new step beyond traditional art fair formats. MAZE is an eclectic mix of international fairs dedicated to art, design, and visual culture, and F.P.Journe couldn’t resist jumping on board.
The prestigious jury panel for the MAZE/Art Awards was composed of esteemed figures such as Patricia Marshall of Fundación Jumex, Mexico, and Matthias Pfaller, a curator at the Centre Pompidou. Their choice of Victor Fidelis reflects the award’s international reach and high curatorial standards. His work, ‘No limit do privado’, transforms an everyday moment into a narrative enriched with themes of family, belonging, and identity, making the mundane arrestingly meaningful.
F.P.Journe has always been synonymous with authenticity, rarity, and talent – attributes that bond the worlds of watchmaking and art. The MAZE/Art Awards is yet another testament to the brand’s commitment to contemporary art and its unparalleled dedication to nurturing creativity worldwide.
This venture into the art scene shows that F.P.Journe is not just about making watches tick with precision but also about making hearts resonate with emotion. After all, isn’t a great watch just like a great piece of art – timeless?
