# Andrić Prize

The Andrić Prize (Serbian: Андрићева награда, romanized: Andrićeva nagrada) is a Serbian and formerly Yugoslav annual literary award for short stories and short story collections in Serbian granted by the Zadužbina Ive Andrića ("Ivo Andrić Foundation") since 1975.

## History

The prize was founded by the Ivo Andrić Foundation in accordance with the last will of Serbian Nobel author Ivo Andrić. The formal foundation took place on 12 March 1976, and the rules for granting the prize were amended in 2005, 2006, 2019 and 2020. Three jurors decide on the winner. The jurors themselves are elected by a board of literary authors, critics and historians to a mandate of 3 years.
The prize consists of a diploma and a sum of money. It is given to the winner at a ceremony held every year on October 10, the birth date of Ivo Andrić.
For the year 2010, no work was awarded for the first time in the prize's history. According to the jurors' statement, none of the authors nominated that year deserved the prize, although "some quality works were nominated".
