"The project is conceived as more than an awards program, intended as a year-round space for visibility, dialogue, and exchange within the art community."
"An international jury of experts awards the medals based on four concepts: vision and innovation, skill and execution, engagement, and broader impact."
"Gold awardees in the artist categories receive over $250,000 annually in support, including honorariums, philanthropic contributions, and public commissions."
The Art Basel Awards initiative has announced 33 honorees, including artists, curators, and cultural figures. This year's program aims to foster visibility and dialogue year-round. The awards are based on vision, innovation, skill, engagement, and impact. Medalists will be celebrated at Art Basel in Switzerland in June, with gold medalists announced at Art Basel Miami Beach in December. Gold awardees in artist categories receive over $250,000 annually in support, including honorariums and public commissions.
