WERK.STOFF Prize for Painting 2021<\/h3>\n

of the Andreas Felger Cultural Foundation and the Heidelberger Art Association<\/a><\/h4>\n

The WERK.STOFF Prize for Painting<\/strong> understands painting as an open concept. Beyond the idea of the classical painting on canvas, the prize is open to contemporary painterly practices that, among other things, expand the repertoire of materials and motifs and cross-culturally incorporate previously marginalized visual worlds and ways of working, reach into space, create medial links, or otherwise question conventions of common conceptions of painting. In this way the prize emphasizes the polyphony of media, reflecting the ongoing transformation of artistic production and the diversity of experience in a globalized world.<\/p>\n
