Linocut today XIII, 2025

With the founding of the Städtische Galerie Bietigheim-Bissingen in 1989, also the graphic arts prize “Linocut today” was launched. Since then the city of Bietigheim-Bissingen has been awarding it every three years. In 2025 it will be awarded for the 13th time, as always expecting more than 500 entries from all over the world.

The »Linocut today« prize has become one of the most important graphic arts prizes. Its aim is to support contemporary artists working in the linocut technique and to encourage others to use this technique rich in tradition. “Linocut today” has made an essential contribution to the fact that the linocut technique has established itself next to woodcut as a relief printing technique of equal importance.
