Ursula Schulz-Dornburg (born 1938) is the main prizewinner. In her work, she pursues a cultural-historical and anthropological interest, which she describes as the "verticality of time". In her work, she attempts to give a conceptual and modern form to found and formerly revitalised objects, as well as to maintain an ongoing awareness of resources - in both human and nature-related ways.
The artist Farah Al Qasimi (born 1991) receives the sponsorship award. In her work, she examines post-colonial structures of power, gender and taste in the Arab Gulf states.
