Quadriga (award)
Quadriga is an annual German award sponsored by ''Netzwerk Quadriga gGmbH'', a non-profit organization based in Berlin. The award recognizes four people or groups for their commitment to innovation, renewal, and a pioneering spirit through political, economic, and cultural activities.
The award consists of a small statue resembling the quadriga atop the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. ''Werkstatt Deutschland'' presents the award every year on German Unity Day, which commemorates German reunification in 1990. The award has been presented by prominent individuals, including Viktor Yushchenko, Bernard Kouchner, and Mikhail Gorbachev.
==History==
The award was first given in 2003. For the first two years, the award ceremony took place at Konzerthaus Berlin. From 2005 until 2008, the ceremony was held at Komische Oper Berlin opera house. In 2009, the award ceremony was hosted at the seat of the Foreign Office of Germany.
The announcement that Vladimir Putin would receive the award in 2011 was widely condemned. As a result of protests by Quadriga board members and former recipients, the 2011 awards and ceremonies were cancelled. Likewise, the Quadriga was not awarded in 2012.
