Henkel Art.Award.

Since 2002, Henkel Central Eastern Europe has sponsored the Henkel Art.Award. together with KulturKontakt Austria - the only comprehensive art promotion prize for Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
The Henkel Art.Award. is endowed to the sum of EUR 7.000,-- and the prize winner will be invited to display his or her works of art within the framework of an individual exhibition in the Museum der Modernen Kunst Stiftung Ludwig (MUMOK) in Vienna, thus
making the art accessible to the general public.
Without prescribing pre-defined topics, the Henkel Art.Award. bestows prizes for outstanding and innovative entries from fine artists in the fields of painting, drawing, photography, video and installation. In a multi-phased selection process, a prominent, top-class international jury consisting of curators and museum experts will choose the winner from the submitted entries.
In addition, Henkel awards a young artists’ prize worth EUR 2.000,-- to one of the participants in KulturKontakt Austria’s Artists in Residence programme, in order to promote up-and-coming artists.
KulturKontakt Austria is the longstanding, tried and tested partner for this project.
