The Max Mara Art Prize for Women is a biennial arts prize awarded to a young female artist working in the United Kingdom. It is organized by the Max Mara fashion company and the Whitechapel Gallery in London. The prize includes a six-month residency in Italy, during which the artist creates an art project to be exhibited at the Whitechapel Gallery and at the Collezione Maramotti in Reggio Emilia, in Emilia-Romagna in northern Italy.
Between 2006 and 2020 the winners of the prize were Margaret Salmon, Hannah Rickards,[1][2] Andrea Büttner, Laure Prouvost, Corin Sworn, Emma Hart, Helen Cammock and Emma Talbot.[3]
