BONN.- Every two years from 1984 on, the Dorothea von Stetten Art Award has been given to artists who have not yet turned 36 but whose work shows interesting perspectives and possibilities for development. Consequently, the award focuses on young contemporary art thus providing an important emphasis in the museums overall programme. Five independent curators who are very familiar with the younger art scene selected the participants for the Dorothea von Stetten Art Award. They are: Kristoffer Askelbo, Dani Gal, Jana Gunstheimer, Michaela Meise ans Jean-Xavier Renaud.
