---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: [artbox] Henkel Art.Award 2007 for industrial design From: "maria vassileva" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sat, March 31, 2007 09:57 To: "artbox" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Art Prize for Central Eastern Europe and Central Asia in 28 Countries Henkel Art.Award. 2007 for industrial design Vienna, March 2007. For the sixth consecutive year, Henkel Central Eastern Europe is announcing the Henkel Art.Award., its annual art prize for the Central and Eastern European and Central Asian region. This award encompasses three key components of modern art drawing, photography and design which will alternately serve as the main theme of the award every three years. This year, the Henkel Art.Award. will be granted the second time for design (industrial design). Henkel considers its art prize, endowed with the sum of 7,000 Euro, to be a contribution to the process of European integration and to the cultural understanding of the region. This is a topic which is of increasing importance, thanks to the process of EU enlargement in the CEE region. Promoting young, talented artists is also one of Henkels priorities. For this reason, Henkel is also granting a Youth Artists Prize endowed with a monetary award of 2,000 Euro to the participants of the Artists-in-Residence Program of KulturKontakt Austria. An additional attractive feature of the Henkel Art.Award. is an exhibition of the works of art created by the nominated finalists in Vienna in November 2007 as well as an exhibition of the award winner in his or her home country with the support of Henkel CEE. After the awards ceremony, previous winners of the Henkel Art.Award. have gone on to be invited to international exhibitions. For example, the works of Dan Perjovschis were exhibited in Cologne, New York and in a large exhibition organized by the Generali Foundation in Vienna. Furthermore, the photographic artist Vidmantas Ilciukas was the Lithuanian representative at the large art project called Compilation Europe, which took place in Hainburg near Vienna. KulturKontakt Austria has served as the long-term partner of Henkel CEE for this project. For the last ten years, it has been carrying out artistic projects in Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe, and has also initiated an artists-in-residence program for artists and photographers from Central, Eastern and Southeastern European countries.
