At a ceremony in Prague’s Czernin Palace, Australian curator David Handley was among the recipients of the 2025 Gratias Agit award. He was honored by the Czech FM Jan Lipavský for his long-standing efforts to showcase Czech artists at Sculpture by the Sea, a globally recognized outdoor exhibition near Sydney. Handley has long felt a strong connection to Czechia, shaped by his time living in the country during the 1990s.
Nine individuals and one organization were honored this week with the Gratias Agit award, which the Czech Foreign Ministry gives annually to those who promote Czechia abroad.
