Will Lammert Prize

The Will Lammert Prize (German: Will-Lammert-Preis) was an East German art award named after the sculptor Will Lammert. Between 1962 and 1992, it was awarded at irregular intervals to young sculptors by the (East) German Academy of Arts. There were 13 laureates in total.

The Will Lammert Prize is awarded to Margret Middell, 1969

Werner Stötzer, 2006

The prize, which was donated by Lammert's widow in 1957, was awarded for the first time on 5 January 1962, to Werner Stötzer. This made the Will Lammert Prize the first privately sponsored award in East Germany. According to its provisions, only sculptors under the age of 30 were eligible for the prize. The age restriction was later lifted, however.
