(director of the Nationalgalerie, Berlin), Gabriele Knapstein (curator at the

second jury of the Nationalgalerie Prize for Young Art 2009. The four nominated

will present their works at a joint exhibition taking place at the Hamburger
Bahnhof Museum für Gegenwart in Berlin from September 11, 2009 to

The second jury will select the winner from the four nominees on the strength of
their works presented at the exhibition and will award the prize at a festive award

Members of the first jury were Massimiliano Gioni (Nicola Trussardi Foundation,
