The federal state of Brandenburg and the
Stiftung Schloss Neuhardenberg foundation's
21st Brandenburgischer Kunstpreis
('Brandenburg Art Award')
The Brandenburgischer Kunstpreis honours creative achievements in the areas of painting, graphic design, sculpture/installation and photography that have been produced in Brandenburg over the past year. The art award is funded by the federal state of Brandenburg and the Stiftung Schloss Neuhardenberg foundation. Besides the awards in these four main categories, the Brandenburg State Premier sponsors a lifetime achievement award, and Brandenburg's Ministry of Science, Research and Culture awards an annual scholarship to a talented young artist.
The accompanying exhibition of works by the award-winning artists, as well as a selection of further submissions, is an essential element of the Brandenburg Art Award. It provides insights into what is currently happening on the region's art scene, and showcases the variety and talent of the artists who live and work in Brandenburg. An extensive catalogue will also be published to accompany the exhibition.
