Information About

Hugo Boss Prize




A jury of curators, critics and scholars is responsible for the selection of the artists. They nominate six or seven artists for the short list; several months later, they choose the winner of the prize. In 1996 and 1998 , the nominated artists exhibited their work at the now-defunct Guggenheim Soho ; since 2000 , only the winning artist has shown his or her work.
