From 2015 to 2017 the Swiss Art Awards have focused on a trio of specific issues, in an attempt to survey the context and socio-economic conditions of cultural production in general and artistic production in particular. The first year was focused on the topic of language, rhetorics and self-marketing, the second year explored artistic mobility. 2017 is devoted to culture promotion: who provides financial support to creative artists, and how do they go about it?

The visual Identity and the design of the annual publications are based on visualizations of quantitative analysis of each yeas topic.
