ERSTE Foundation announces that Ekaterina Degot receives the Igor Zabel Award for Culture and Theory 2014 Ekaterina Degot, the art director of the Academy of the Arts of the World in Cologne, is the recipient of this year’s Igor Zabel Award for Culture and Theory. One of the three Igor Zabel working grants is traditionally awarded by the laureate. This year it goes to the Russian activist, writer and translator Kirill Medvedev for his publishing house, Free Marxist Press. The jury awarded two grants to theorists who examine the close interaction between political and cultural developments: the art theorist Karel Císař from Prague and the art historian Miklavž Komelj from Ljubljana. With this year’s winner, the Igor Zabel Award is sending out a clear signal of support for the new Russian dissident scene. Faced with the overheated nationalist climate created by the conflict in Ukraine and a new era of East-West confrontation, the scene is finding it increasingly difficult to attract attention within and above all outside of Russia. Ekaterina Degot was awarded the prize for her interdisciplinary work as a writer and curator who primarily focuses on socio-political and aesthetic topics in Russia and Eastern Europe. Her recent blog contributions to the debate on a boycott at Manifesta in St. Petersburg received a great deal of attention. In a subtle manner, she made it clear that it would have been fatal to cut off Russian artists from international exchange at this moment in time, even though there was always a risk that the renowned exhibition could be misappropriated to cultivate the image of an undemocratic system. e-flux/announcements/russian-art-historian-writer-and-curator-ekaterina-degot-receives-the-igor-zabel-award-for-culture-and-theory-2014/
