The laureate is selected annually by a renowned international committee of experts.

In addition to the award of 40.000 Euro, three working grants of 12.000 Euro each are awarded, two by the jury, one by the laureate.
The international jury in 2008 compounded of dramaturg, curator and writer Eda Čufer (Slovenia/USA), artist Josef Dabernig (Austria) and Charles Esche, curator and director Van Abbemuseum (Netherlands) bestowed:
It went to the Croatian curatorial collective What, How & for Whom (WHW) (Ivet Ćurlin, Ana Dević, Nataša Ilić and Sabina Sabolović) because of their unique working practice as a curatorial collective that has been dedicated to exploring relevant contemporary artistic issues in relation to social issues concerning the world after 1989. The jury views their work as continuing the principles represented in the diverse yet precise practice of Igor Zabel.

WHW curated also the 11th Istanbul Biennial (2009).
Igor Zabel was a Slovenian curator, writer and cultural theorist who, during his entire life, was actively involved in many fields of theory and culture – as a philosopher, author, essayist, modern and contemporary art curator, literary and art critic, translator, and model for new generations of curators and critics of contemporary art. As a curator and writer, he tirelessly called for the profound exploration of those political, social and cultural undercurrents that had the potential to give us a better understanding of the post-communist world of today.
