Since 2010 the gallery QQArt has been running an art prize, now international and held every second year. Each edition starts from a term in physics. This time it is “Druck”, German for pressure, in all its forms. There are no further requirements: how you interpret the term is entirely up to you.
All editions so far: 6,787 works submitted by more than 2,500 applicants from twelve countries, 439 of them exhibited.
Three categories, €600 each
