5th International André Evard Prize

For the 5th time, the messmer art gallery has awarded one of the world’s most important art prizes in the field of concrete-constructive art. The 100 selected works provide a deep insight into the current and international work of the concrete-constructive scene. The exhibition presents a tableau of the most diverse media and formal languages, which come together under the auspices of the concrete and constructive. This exhibition makes it clear how differently, individually and personally the artists have dealt with the same art movement.

A renowned expert jury selected the winner of the highly endowed prize. This consists of the collector and museum founder Marli Hoppe-Ritter from Waldenbuch, Sabine Schaschl, director and chief curator of the Museum Haus Konstruktiv in Zurich, and Ewald Karl Schrade, the gallery owner and initiator of Art Karlsruhe. The prize money of 10,000 euros was divided among the artists of the three most convincing works in the exhibition, and an audience prize was also awarded.
