The Art Directors Guild announces DXV by American Standard as the exclusive Presenting Sponsor for its upcoming 20th Annual Excellence in Production Design Awards on January 31, 2016, at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Today's announcement was made by ADG President Mimi Gramatky and Awards Producer Thomas Wilkins.
Wilkins said, The ADG is honored and delighted to align with the prestigious brand of DXV by American Standard, a global manufacturing leader. This iconic brand has a storied history of developing ground-breaking design and technologies that impact our everyday lives with beauty and function. Our Guild and DXV share a passion for design, which makes them a perfect partner for our awards.
Jean-Jacques L'Henaff, Vice President of Design for American Standard Brands, said, Fueling creativity in design and manufacturing is a driving force for us at DXV. It is this pioneering innovation in crafting materials affecting people's lives that connects us intimately with the artisans and designers of the Art Directors Guild. We share a common passion with them. This makes us so proud to be a Presenting Sponsor of the 20th Annual ADG Awards.
In addition to naming rights, the agreement entitles DXV by American Standard to have a major presence at the awards ceremony at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The company will showcase its first-to-market 3D printed metal bathroom faucets, plus air videos describing the artistic inspiration and technology behind their brands and product collections.
Coinciding with the ADG Awards in January, this launch of the first commercially-available residential faucets created with 3D metal printing, referred to as additive manufacturing , will have a major disruptive effect on the design and construction industry. Each of the three faucets in this new collection completely alters the user's experience with water.
Co-Producers of this years Art Directors Guild Awards are Production Designers James Pearse Connelly and Judy Cosgrove. Nominations for this year's ADG Excellence in Production Design Awards will be announced on January 5, 2016. The ADG will present winners in 11 competitive categories for theatrical films, television productions, commercials and music videos on January 31, 2016. A recipient of the Guild's Outstanding Contribution to Cinematic Imagery Award presented by DXV by American Standard, will be announced in the upcoming weeks.
As previously announced, Turner Classic Movies host Robert Osborne will be the first to receive ADG's newly created William Cameron Menzies Award for championing classic motion pictures. Four legendary women - Production Designer Carmen Dillon, Production and Costume Designer Patricia Norris, Production Designer and Illustrator Dorothea Holt Redmond and Art Director and Set Designer Dianne Wager - will be inducted into the Art Directors Guild (ADG) Hall of Fame. Also announced, Oscar -winning Production Designer Patrizia von Brandenstein has been voted this year's recipient of the ADG Council's Lifetime Achievement honor. The additional Lifetime Achievement Awards honorees from the other crafts - Scenic, Title and Graphic Artists; Illustrators and Matte Artists; Set Designers and Model Makers; and Previs Artists - will be announced in the near future.
