The Lola Gaos Awards, formerly Berlanga Awards (Valencian: Premis Berlanga; Spanish: Premios Berlanga) and originally Valencian Audiovisual Awards (Premis de l'Audiovisual Valencià), are the main film awards of the Valencian Community, Spain, presented by the Acadèmia Valenciana de l'Audiovisual (AVAV) and the Institut Valencià de Cultura (IVC), and celebrated annually.
History
[edit]Promoted by the regional ministry of Culture, the awards were first presented in 2018 by the Institut Valencià de Cultura ('Valencian Institute of Culture'; IVC) and the Acadèmia Valenciana de l'Audiovisual ('Valencian Audiovisual Academy'; AVAV).[1] The trophies consist of an abstract sculpture blending stone and methacrylate designed by local artist Inma Femenía.[2] The ceremony was broadcast on the regional broadcaster À Punt.[1] New categories were introduced in the 2nd edition, broadening the scope of the awards to television series, web series and videogames, up to a total of 23 categories overall.[3] In 2021, on the occasion of the one hundred anniversary of the birth of Luis García Berlanga, the regional ministry of Education, Culture and Sport agreed on the renaming of the awards to Berlanga Awards (Premis Berlanga) from the 4th edition onward to pay homage to the Valencia-born filmmaker.[4] The Empreses Audiovisuals Valencianes Federades (EAVF), which had already registered the name of Premios Berlanga in 2008, ceded the naming rights.[5]
In 2024, after EAVF decided to annul the informal agreement with the academy to lease the brand name of Berlanga, the academy determined that the awards would be known as Lola Gaos Awards, after actress Lola Gaos.[6] Despite the Valencian government's withdrawal of support to the awards, academy president Teresa Cebrián stated that the awards would continue to be held, and that the upcoming edition would be re-scheduled from late 2024 to early 2025.[6]
