YCC 2011 AWARD NIGHT

 

On September 22, 2011, Chevrolet Design Night brought together European YCC 2011 winners to celebrate YCC 2011 in true style. The festivities were held in London at one of the city’s most intriguing landmarks, Battersea Power Station, at the height of London Design Festival. 

 
 
Special guests and other icons of style

The invitation-only group included not only the top three European YCC 2011 winners but YCC organizers, the European YCC 2011 jury and international YCC fans. Party-goers were treated to talks by well-known creative leaders, including internationally renowned designer Neville Brody, design pioneer and innovator Wayne Hemingway and British Academy Award-nominated documentary film maker Lucy Walker. Later in the evening, the talented singer-songwriter Bluey Robinson and veteran of the club scene Thomas Koch aka DJ T. kicked up the party a notch or two.  

 
Throughout the evening, guests could check out iconic Chevrolet models from key decades of the brand’s 100-year history. The exhibition included the Chevrolet Camaro Convertible, the soon-to-be-released Chevrolet Volt and the European premiere of the 50th Anniversary Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Concept. In addition, Belgian cult design label Quinze & Milan displayed examples of their work and a short film depicting the making of their avant-garde re-interpretation of the Chevrolet Orlando (which appeared at the London Design Festival).
 
Finally, guests could savor the visually-stimulating atmosphere and hands-on installations with the help of Jamie Oliver Fabulous Feasts. What a night!
 
 

 

Award Night YCC 2010

On September 29, 2010, the YCC 2010 awards ceremony took place at a fitting venue in Paris: the sensory-laden Théâtre du Merveilleux in the Pavillons de Bercy. Winners celebrated at the exuberant Chevrolet Fashion Catwalk event, which took place during Paris Fashion Week and featured stunning exhibits of Chevrolet old-timers and fantastical reinventions, a fashion show of iconic Chevrolet cars with haute couture interpretations by Frank Sorbier, and - needless to say - much fanfare around the YCC winners and the launch of YCC 2011.

Chevrolet Europe President and GM Wayne Brannon and all three winners of the Young Creative Chevrolet 2010 Music award: 1st Prize winner Daniel Kovacs, 2nd Prize winner Peter Klohmann, 3rd Prize winners Jan Willem van Hees and Simon Pfaff; and jury member Leander Bauer.

Chevrolet provides a stage for young talents at its Spark of Fashion night

Chevrolet's Spark of Fashion night at the Kosmos movie theater in Berlin, Germany, on October 29, provided a stage for many young talents in fashion, music, video, photography and visual arts with the evening celebrating the winners of the Young Creative Chevrolet 2009 arts contest.

One of the highlights of the evening was a fashion show by Berlin fashion designer, Mischa Woeste, of Smeilinener. But forget wedding dresses, the last model featuring on the catwalk in this show was a unique interpretation of the all new Chevrolet Spark.

During the evening, guests were also invited to vote for their three favorites out of 13 creative sticker projects, developed by arts students in a two-day graphic design workshop. The workshop was jointly organized by Chevrolet, Mediadesign Hochschule in Berlin and the giraffentoast design studio. The first 100 Spark customers in Germany will be able to choose one of the three winning stickers and have them applied to their new car for free.

Finishing the evening with a spark, Norwegian singer and songwriter Marit Larsen gave a pre-premiere, private concert before her tour of Germany.
