We support outstanding artists

For over 30 years, STRABAG SE has supported young artists through the STRABAG ART Award—an annual prize dedicated to painting and drawing. Originally focused on Austria, the award has been open to international applications since 2009, rotating between selected countries where STRABAG operates.

Each year, five winners are selected by an international jury. Artists under the age of 40 working in painting and drawing are invited to apply.

Applications open every January.
