The Gustav Theodor Fechner Award for Outstanding Contributions to
Empirical Aesthetics, the Sir Francis Galton Award for Outstanding
Contribution to the Study of Creativity and the Alexander-Gottlieb-Baumgarten
Award for Outstanding Contributions of Young Scientists are presented every two years.
Gustav Theodor Fechner founded experimental psychology with his work on psychophysics in the 1860s. With his publication
of Vorschule der Aesthetik (Pre-School of Aesthetics) in 1876, he founded experimental aesthetics and made it the second
oldest branch of experimental psychology.
Sir Francis Galton, with his Studies of Hereditary Genius, began the scientific
study of creativity.
The German philosopher Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten (1714-1762) coined the term aesthetics thereby
giving the name to the whole field. This award was given for the first time in Takarazuka, Japan 2002.
These awards honor
Fechner, Galton, and Baumgarten as much as they honor the recipients of the awards.
