When
15. December, 2023 – 3. March, 2024

The Esterházy Privatstiftung is announcing the Esterházy Art Award again in 2023. An international jury of experts will select up to 25 artists from the submitted entries: the shortlisted entries will be presented in an exhibition at the Ludwig Museum – Museum of Contemporary Art.

The cultural significance of the Esterházy Art Award is not only reflected in the awarding of the prize, but also in the accompanying exhibition. Due to its size, its central role and the careful selection of the nominated artists, it is a benchmark for the young Hungarian art scene. Established in 2009, the aim of the award is to promote contemporary art and international dialogue.

The prize of €5,000 per person is awarded every two years to a minimum of two and a maximum of three Hungarian artists under the age of 45 by an independent, international jury. Entries are open to paintings and site-specific installations (or plans) in the field of painting.

Laureates in 2021 were Rózsa Luca Sára, Tranker Kata and Ulbert Ádám.
