Appel à candidatures pour STRIKE : il faut battre le fer tant qu’il est chaud ! Une exposition consacrée à la forge contemporaine

But what does this most common element — widely used in utilitarian objects and industrial production, yet also culturally significant — have to offer to the world of art? Why has ironworking shifted from the hands of blacksmiths to highly standardised production — and is there a way back, or a way forward? The open call seeks works that engage with the numerous possibilities and strengths of using iron in contemporary craft, blacksmithing, and jewellery.
