Oskár Čepan price
Jury statement
"At times of turbulence and war, solidarity is an essential value and coming together, a necessity for creating stronger foundations for a better and more promising future. It is in this mindset that this year’s Oskár Čepan Award has decided, for the first time in its history, to nominate a group of equal winners as a gesture and symbol for a collective voice rather than a single one. The jury’s selection was fraught with discussion due to the substantive number and strong level of applicants. In making its choices, the jury favoured those artistic practices that showed a unique yet collective voice, demonstrated potential, and that would benefit from the award as a springboard for their career or a token of recognition. The nominated group of practitioners showcase a diversity of practices that is representative of the Slovak contemporary art scene to international audiences." - Amira Gad, head of a jury
