Submission for the 2016 Mariano Gago Ecsite Awards have now been reviewed by the Jury, chaired by Museum of London Director Sharon Ament.
The winner of the "Strategic Partnership" prize will be revealed at the Ecsite Annual Conference's Gala Ball in Graz, Austria, on 9 June.
Note that due to a low number of submissions, the Jury decided not to award a prize in the originally planned "Political Boldness" category. Don't hesitate to send feedback about award categories to communications@ecsite.eu.
The 2016 Ecsite Strategic Partnership Award recognised extraordinary collaboration between an Ecsite member and an external partner whose work together enabled them to achieve goals neither of them could have reached by themselves alone.
Winner: Tekniska museet, Stockholm (Sweden) for the partnership undertaken with artist Håkan Lidbo on the interactive exhibit “Make Music with Your Whole Body”. Highly Commended: International Centre for Life, Newcastle (United Kingdom) for their partnership built with the Northumbria University.
