Since 1953, the ars viva Prize for Visual Arts has been awarded each year to outstanding young artists living in Germany, whose artistic works show an individual stylistic language and an awareness of contemporary questions. This year, the Kulturkreis der deutschen Wirtschaft im BDI e. V. (Cultural Circle of German Industry in the BDI) has awarded the prize to Niko Abramidis & NE (*1987), Cana Bilir-Meier (*1986), and Keto Logua (*1988). The works of the artists, which are being exhibited at Kai 10, Düsseldorf, and at the Kunstmuseum Bern in conjunction with the prize, are presented in the accompanying publication.
