has chosen the trio of winners:: Filip Berte, Marcin Czarnopysia and Fabien Lédé

The first prize winner (The Open Call Main Award TTT, The Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wroclaw Rector’s Award) is confirmed to be Filip Berte from Belgium. Born in 1976, he graduated from architecture and painting in Ghent (Belgium). After his graduation, he has been working as an architect. The means of creating architecture are not important to him. As a visual designer, he can act freely, discovering space in all dimensions. His works are characterized by the recurring theme of edges, migrations and borders. From 2006 to 2013 he worked on his own project of a visual research titled 'Eutopy', that took place in Europe. The final results were summed in the action of building a home. In 2011 Berte received the East Flanders’ Visual Arts Prize for his interdisciplinary art portfolio. The jury awarded his artworks from the 'Un-Home' cycle.

The Contemporary Lynx Magazine Prize goes to Fabien Lede from France. He was born in 1981, Montbard (France). He illustrates books, creates murals and frescos, works as a visual and stage designer. His artworks are created in a peculiar 'naive' style, described by Fabien as raw couture and psychedelic electro-pop. He graduated from graphic design at Orleans Art School and Interdisciplinary Printmaking at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wroclaw. Fabien Lede established Gallery and Art Library Nu Koza in Dijon (France). Currently, he lives in Wroclaw and Dijon.
