The subject of iam’s forthcoming documentary, making nothing happen (dir. Simon Morris; funded by Manchester Metropolitan University and York College; due September 2010), Pavel Büchler, has been awarded the 2010 Northern Art Prize.
Martin Wainwright’s report on the ceremony for The Guardian, Friday 22 January, 2010, follows:
”
Büchler scoops the North’s answer to the Turner Prize, declaring his love for Manchester’s buzzing art scene.
He claimed to have last won a competition when he was 13, but artist Pavel Büchler played it cool last night when a packed gallery in Leeds heard that he had taken the third Northern Art prize.
