Institute for Contemporary Art has established Radoslav Putar Award,
an award for the best young visual artist in Croatia in 2002. The award
is a part of the European network of the awards, where all the annual
winners receive a residency program in the USA.

By the criteria of the Croatian award, the competition goes in two
rounds. In the first round, the jury selects four finalists from the
submitted portfolios, and in the second round, the finalists present
their works at an exhibition. The same jury, composed of five members
selects the winner amongst them, after seeing the exhibited works and
interviewing the artists.

On the occasion of 10th anniversary of the award, we made this CD
presenting first five years, with a followup of the careers of the artists
participating in the first five years of the Radoslav Putar Award.
The CD follows the structure and design of the website of the award
and comprises updates and additional documentation on each
participating finalist.

The publication is prepared as an in-house project and now, several
years later, serves as a good documentation and overview of the early
days of the award which will in a couple of years reach the celebration
of two decades of its existence.
