The eight chocolate artworks created for Chokolashow’s second edition went on display at Wannenes Art Contact in Monaco at September 25th and will remain there, open to public voting until October 10th. 

In a unique twist, the artworks are displayed anonymously, each identified only by a number from one to eight. This technique ensures visitors vote based solely on the artistic merit of each piece rather than the reputation of the artist.

Visitors can view the chocolate creations during the gallery’s opening hours and cast their vote by placing a numbered ballot in the designated box. The most popular artwork will be revealed at the Chokolashow Village on 13th and 14th October.

The main event ahead

The Chokolatsow Village will take place at the Méridien Beach Plaza from 10am to 6pm on both days, with free entrance to the public. The two-day  programme includes chocolate tastings, creative workshops, and a special ‘Choco therapy’ session led by artist Monica Di Rocco on October 14th from 3pm to 5pm.

The highlight of the village will be a charity auction on the evening of the 14th, where all eight chocolate artworks will be sold. Proceeds will be distributed equally among eight charities, which will be drawn by lottery that evening. The auction will be followed by a gourmet dinner prepared by the hotel’s executive chef, Laurent Collin. Reservations for the evening event can be made through this email: info@chokolashow.com

This unique initiative is organised by the Monaco International Hub Association and chaired by journalist Maria Bologna
