Recipients of the ExtraVALUE Art Awards 2019
For the fourth year running, Erste Bank is presenting its ExtraVALUE Art Awards in collaboration with the Austrian Cultural Forum New York and the art association das weisse haus.
Specifically, there are two awards: The ExtraVALUE Art Award New York, endowed with 3,000 euros, includes a one-month stay in New York as a phase of inspiration and expansion of the artist’s own network, as well as a presentation at the Austrian Cultural Forum (ACFNY) located there in June 2019. This award is realised in cooperation with studio das weisse haus and ACFNY.
The ExtraVALUE Art Award Vienna, endowed with 1,500 euros, is combined with a solo exhibition in das weisse haus in September 2019.
