"Sophie Calle and Mona Hatoum have been recognized for their work with awards. As the Süddeutsche Zeitung reports, Calle has won the Swedish Hasselblad Prize for Photography for 2010 from the Hasselblad Foundation in Gothenburg, while Hatoum was awarded the German Käthe-Kollwitz-Preis for 2010 from Berlin’s Akademie der Künste...
In Hatoum’s case, the jurors lauded the centrality of the “human body caught between violence, power, and fragility” in her work. Hatoum, who was born in Lebanon in 1952, moved to London in 1975 and now divides her time between London and Berlin. The Käthe-Kollwitz-Preis is endowed with $16,800."
