As a defining component of each edition of HUGO BOSS ASIA ART, a carefully selected jury is in charge of nominating and selecting the shortlisted artists and the final winner. In 2015, the jury sees a strong mix of both independent and institutional members who have been faithfully supporting artists or projects in Asia. It is comprised of acclaimed museum directors, curators from leading institutions in Greater China, Southeast Asia and international, as well as independent artists, curators, and critics across Southeast Asia and Greater China. Their insights into the development of the contemporary art scene in Asia today, and powerful visions into the challenges towards the future, will stimulate the Award to make greater contributions to the evolution of contemporary art in Asia.
