Danne Ojeda’s book series was one of the 5 artists selected in the Sculpture category out of 700 artists presented in the exhibition.
›››››››› This award evokes the history of Florence in an age of splendour of the arts, of which we wish an enduring renascence at the time of Lorenzo de’ Medici, known as ‘the Magnificent’ (1449–1492). The relief portrait of that Florentine humanist and patron of the arts on the medal conferred with the award that bears his name was made by the sculptor Mario Pachioli.
