Bâloise Prize
The Bâloise Art Prize is a prize awarded to two people each year at "Art Statements" sector of the international Art Basel fair. It is awarded by the Bâloise group (insurance and banking), a company that works to promote contemporary, emerging art. The Prize has been in existence since 1999. Each winner receives CHF 30,000.[1] The winners' acquired works are then donated to mumok (MUseum MOderner Kunst) in Vienna and the Hamburger Kunsthalle, Hamburg.
