Award 2021
Welcome to the Social Art Award 2021 – Online Gallery!
We are grateful for the many inspiring contributions from artists around the world. The selected works reflect a broad spectrum of contemporary social art practices and explore new relationships between humans, nature, and technology. They address themes such as ecological regeneration, climate justice, sustainable futures, social resilience, and more-than-human perspectives.
Below you will find the submissions from the Social Art Award 2021 – New Greening edition that passed the initial jury round. The Online Gallery offers public visibility to these works and encourages dialogue around their ideas and approaches; it does not replace the final jury decision.
Thank you to all artists for sharing your visionary and committed work. We invite you to explore the gallery and engage with the perspectives shaping New Greening.

Abstract photograph with hand-welded individual steel frame (unique, 110 x 110) from the series of works "The Asymmetries of the Elemental", which focuses on the increasingly perceptible asymmetries in our world structure. These are caused, among other things, by the abundance within our affluent societies, which produces things and destroys them again in an ever faster spiral. The little appreciation in dealing with what is, be it our resources or things that only serve their purpose for a short time, bring the symmetry of the world, the basis of our existence, to the brink of the possible.
