We at PPF Foundation have been supporting Czech talents for six years, consistently creating conditions for their growth and opening doors for them to present their work abroad. We decided to support the participation of Czech arts and crafts masters at De Mains De Maîtres Biennale because we perceive it is a unique opportunity to showcase the rich and original Czech creative skills in an international context. The Biennial is a prestigious platform highlighting the excellent craftsmanship with an overlap into arts; indeed, this is precisely a field where the Czech Republic demonstrates a robust tradition as well as current top quality. The presentation of several dozen Czech artists in Luxembourg will help not only to raise greater awareness of Czech culture abroad, but also to establish international collaborations and foster new contacts.
