The Strabag Artaward International is an award for the promotion of art in the fields 
of painting and drawing for artists of up to 40 years of age. 
This new award succeeds to the former Strabag Artaward, which had been awarded 
to Austrian artists over the last 13 years. The Strabag Artaward International will be given 
away to artists from four countries, with the participating countries changing every three years.

The main prize of the Artaward is EUR 15.000. In addition, there are four runners-up prizes of
