The Pax Art Awards will be presented for the eighth time at the HEK in Basel.

With these awards, the Art Foundation Pax draws attention to digital art in Switzerland. The prizes, which are awarded in collaboration with the HEK, serve to promote established and up-and-coming Swiss media artists. In addition to the main prize (CHF 30,000) and two sponsorship prizes (CHF 15,000 each), since 2024 two young talents from Swiss art academies have also been supported with a talent promotion prize (CHF 1,000 each). In 2025, the art academies EDHEA (School of Art and Design) in Sierre in Valais and the ZHdK (Zurich University of the Arts) will be partners.

The Art Foundation Pax is a commitment of the cooperative pension insurance company Pax.
