More Mosaics from the Prix Picassiette

MAN is fortunate in its friends.  One of them, French mosaic artist Francoise Moulet, has agreed to share with us her photos from the Prix Picassiette in Chartres, France.   We have talked about the Prix in two previous posts, November 21 and November 27.  Today, thanks to Ms. Moulet, we'll get an expanded look at this international invitational that closed on November 21st.

41 of the 230 artists represented in the exhibit are pictured here.  A few housekeeping notes:

*  Please remember to 'click to enlarge' so you don't miss a detail.

*  A catalogue for the Prix 2010 will be available in the coming months.  Inquiries should go to the wonderful organization, 3R, which produces the Prix http://www.chartres-mosaique-les3r.com/index.php.

*  If you wish to use one of these photographs, please contact Ms. Moulet at her website  http://horizon-mosaique.fr/wordpress/ for permission.

*  All of the work presented here is original to the artists and may not be reproduced without their express permission.
