Since 2019, Künstlerhof Frohnau (KHF) and the Reinickendorf Department of Art and History have been awarding the Ruckhaberle Prize, which commemorates the work of the artist, curator and cultural politician Dieter Ruckhaberle. In addition to this exhibition, the prize includes prize money of €2,000, an artist residency at the Künstlerhof Frohnau and a publication. In times of intensified political debates, decreasing tolerance and an increasing shift to the right in society, the Ruckhaberle Prize emphasises the importance of open spaces for art and discourse for critical reflection on the present. This year, seven artists have been nominated for the award. Their works are characterised by a variety of perspectives and themes that address pressing issues of our time: they address the mechanisms of political propaganda, the spread of conspiracy myths and the ongoing threat of right-wing violence in Germany. They also shed light on the complex experiences of queer Muslim identities and tell of diasporic family stories that raise universal questions of belonging and identity by linking different places and times.
