We are thrilled to announce Arngunnur Ýr Gylfadóttir as the Honorary Chairwoman of the Women in Art Prize.
With over two decades of experience shaping the contemporary art landscape, Arngunnur brings exceptional vision and commitment to our mission of championing women artists worldwide.
As Creative Director of Mall Galleries and Mall Galleries Art Consultancy, she has dedicated her career to discovering emerging talent and creating platforms where artists can thrive. Her curatorial work has consistently championed diversity, accessibility, and excellence in the visual arts.
Arngunnur’s appointment reflects our shared belief that recognition alone is not enough. Her vision for the Women in Art Prize extends beyond celebrating achievement to building lasting networks of mentorship and collaboration among women artists at every stage of their careers.
“Supporting women in the arts means creating pathways, not just podiums,” [you could add a quote from her here if you have one].
We are honoured to have her guidance as we continue to grow the Women in Art Prize community and expand opportunities for women artists globally.
Welcome, Arngunnur.
