WEForum: As we mark the legacy of the World Economic Forum at its 50th Annual Meeting, so too do we celebrate the enduring contributions to society of exceptional artists. The cultural leaders receiving the 2020 Crystal Award are bridge-builders. They connect us to each other, they help us reflect on the human condition, and they provide visions of the world that can cut through the limitations of short-term or linear thinking. On the occasion of the 26th Annual Crystal Award, we are delighted to celebrate the leadership of artist Theaster Gates, choreographer Jin Xing, actor Deepika Padukone and artist Lynette Wallworth.
