The Nordic countries collectively won a respectable total of 24 awards. It was also a record-breaking year for the People’s Lovie Awards as more than 100,000 votes were cast, a 50% increase from last year.

Winners of “Best Partnership and Collaboration” include: Crocs x Jacob Collier Collaboration from Hey Honey (Gold), The Ikea Catalogue from Dazed Studio (Gold), British Vogue x eBay Forces For Change from Condé Nast (Silver) and Don’t Drive or Drive featuring Olympic winner Tom Daley from Wieden+Kennedy London (Bronze, People’s Lovie Winner).

The 2024 Lovies is also honoring the extraordinary contributions and accomplishments of four unique individuals:

 

  • Brian Eno will receive the Lovie Lifetime Achievement – for his massive contributions and advancement in the world of music, art, and environment. His first generative feature film, “Eno,” is an innovative technological experiment that offers viewers 52 quintillion possible versions, showcasing an ethical use case for AI in entertainment and film. Eno is also the founder of the Hard Art collective, uniting artists, activists, and scientists to drive change.

 

  • Dame Pat McGrath will receive a Lovie Special Achievement – for consistently setting new standards and launching viral trends such as the porcelain “glass skin” at the Maison Margiela spring/summer 2024 runway show. Dame McGrath’s unique talent, pioneering spirit, and innovative use of social media and technology keeps her audience enthralled.

 

  • Giuseppe Federici will receive the Lovie Creator of the Year Award for his work as @sepps_eats on TikTok and Instagram. Federici makes cooking accessible with his delightful Italian “nonna.” The duo’s sweet family dynamic, coupled with tasty ideas and recipes, showcases the positive impact of digital platforms.

 

  • Wikiesfera will receive a Lovie Special Achievement for championing the global representation of women in history through digital archives, notably on Wikipedia. Its network of editors and journalists has contributed to 2,000 Spanish-language articles focused on women’s biographies and health.

 

  • Paola Cortellesi will receive a Lovie Film & Video Person of the Year award for her profound impact on European internet culture and cinema. Her directorial debut “There’s Still Tomorrow” (C’è Ancora Domani) explored real-life themes such as femicide and societal violence, making it the highest-grossing film of 2023 and the most successful film directed by an Italian woman.

 

“This year’s Lovie winners truly took innovation to the next level as creativity and ingenuity shined in all our categories,” said Claire Graves, President of the Lovie Awards. “We saw a shared ethos for meaningful collaborations and partnerships, as well as an intent desire to show how the Internet can be used in the most positive way – through humor, education, emotions, and stunning visualization. Each winner represents the best in Europe, and we commend their achievements today.”
