This year GOGBOT presents the fifth edition of the YOUNGBLOOD Award.
Since PLANETART started its activities in 1995. It has always been one of its main objects to create a platform for the young and talented artists. Last year's edition of GOGBOT presented 22 graduates from 9 academies in Holland, with ArtEZ Zwolle graduate Job van der Molen and AKI ArtEZ Enschede graduate Daniel Maalman as winners.

This year the nominees will show their exam-works at 3 locations: The Rijksmuseum Twenthe, the Oude Markt and TETEM. The winner receives 500 Euro and a solo-show at PLANETART (The graduates presenting single channel video and short films have NOT been selected since they were running for the TENT Academy Awards, also showing at GOGBOT 2011).
