The preliminary judging for the "Hans Purrmann Prize of the City of Speyer for Visual Arts" took place via video conference. The art historian and director of the Wilhelm Hack Museum René Zechlin and the artist Martin Liebscher, who works as a professor in Offenbach and was awarded the Hans Purrmann Prize in 1996, participated in the preliminary selection under the direction of Mayor Stefanie Seiler.
A total of 181 applications were submitted for the sponsorship award, from which the jury invited the following eight artists for the main selection:
Enric Fort Ballester (*1987, Benifairó de les Valls, Valencia/ES), Thorben Eggers (*1988, Flensburg), Bastian Gehbauer (*1985, Lindenfels), Alina Grasmann (*1989, Munich), Alexander Janz (*1994, Villingen-Schwenningen), Hanna Kaminski (*1988, San Franciso/USA), Catalin Pislaru (*1988, Chisinau/MD), Christian Retschlag (*1987, Magdeburg), Jörg Sobott (*1986, Riedlingen) and Philipp Valenta (*1987, Hattingen).

The award ceremony will take place on 25 September 2021 at a ceremony in the Historic Town Hall followed by an exhibition opening in the Kulturhof Flachsgasse. The works of the finalists from both competitions will be on display in the rooms of the Städtische Galerie and the Kunstverein until 24 October 2021.
