FILAF Award
best art book published by a gallery
We are proud and happy to have won the Filaf Prize for “Best Art Book Published by a Gallery” for our exhibition catalogue lindsay caldicott: x-ray memories, proclaimed at the Galeristes exhibition on Saturday 19 October 2019.
We sincerely thank each member of this year’s jury composed of Chris Dercon, president, Margit Rowell, Antoine de Galbert, Emmanuelle Pireyre, Théo Mercier and Johan Papaconstantino.
We dedicate this award to the memory of Lindsay and her family.
A radiographer by profession, it was during her psychiatric hospitalization that Lindsay Caldicott began producing her collages made from a myriad of duplicated fragments, worked with a scalpel and assembled with surgical precision. Her fractal universe displays a chromatic harmony ranging from grays to sanguine tones and from golden hues to flesh colors. First presented in 2018 by the gallery, four years after the artist had passed away, her work—immediately praised by critics—is now part of the French Photography Museum, the collections of the Fondation Francès, abcd/Bruno Decharme (France), and Amr Shaker (Switzerland), among others.
