Wall panelling Paris 1925

Prize-winning wall panelling

Students and teachers of both art schools in Gröden made a panelled room for the 1925 International Exhibition in Paris that was awarded the Grand Prix and three other medals for its sculptural features. The panelling is an example of the stylistic renewal going on in Gröden art during the wars, which was mainly thanks to the head of the art school at the time, Guido Balsamo Stella.
