Anfachen Award IX

The Anfachen Award IX addresses a critical fracture point in democratic societies: privilege. The unequal distribution of opportunities, power, and resources ignites debates, shapes political party platforms, and threatens social cohesion—particularly in free societies. The award invites engagement with personal and collective experiences of privilege and prompts reflection on its implications in everyday life, political decision-making, and the global context. The submission deadline for the competition is April 16, 2025.

As in previous editions, a high-profile jury will select 25 winning designs from the submissions. These large-format posters will be displayed in prominent streets and public spaces in Hamburg starting June 17, 2025. Additionally, plans are underway for a touring exhibition of the posters through partnerships with cooperating organizations. Once again, the patron of the award is Klaus Staeck, renowned in Germany for his political poster art.

The jury members for the Anfachen Award IX are Agnieszka Węglarska (Poland), Birgit Lohmeyer (Germany), Nestory Thobias Owano (Tanzania), Yoav Perry (Israel), Marlis Zimmermann (Netherlands/Switzerland), 2x Goldstein (Germany), Maren Amini (Germany), Stas Kolotov (Ukraine), Dan Thy Nguyen (Germany)
