Spirit of the Fringe
This award is awarded in exceptional circumstances to an individual or company
who has truly embraced the spirit of the festival; it is not exclusively a creative
award although can be such and will be awarded by festival directors on an occasional
basis.
The
2010 Kreativni Cena (Creative Award) has been donated by Fringe stalwart
and long time supporter of the event, ceramicist Dave Fry, one of Britain's
leading studio potters, based in Newcastle upon Tyne in the North of England.
The best pieces of his work being highly saught after by collectors from around
the World. His method of working and the nature of the kiln firing makes every
piece produced a unique and original work. Dave’s work is inspired by ancient
glazes and ideas of the early ceramics from Japan, China and Korea and is produced
in high fired stone wear; the works can be used and loved for many years.
