An inspiring evening in Venice celebrating Dian Suci as winner of the tenth edition of the Max Mara Art Prize for Women.⁠ ⁠ The Max Mara Art Prize for Women is the first visual arts prize for emerging and mid-career artists who identify as women. Its tenth edition ushers in a new nomadic, international phase of the award, which will move to a new country with each edition, under the guidance and curation of Cecilia Alemani, Director and Chief Curator of High Line Art in New York. Alongside Max Mara and Collezione Maramotti, Alemani has singled out Indonesia as the key art scene, and the prestigious Museum MACAN – Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nusantara, Jakarta as partner for the first chapter in this new stage of the prize. #MaxMaraArtPrize #MaxMara

The project proposal with which Dian Suci won the tenth edition of the Max Mara Art Prize for Women is titled “Crafting Spirit: Cultural Dialogues in Heritage and Practice”. It springs from her desire to explore the fallout of the encounter between religious artisan traditions and the capitalist system, through a comparative study of Italy and Indonesia. The handcrafting of votive objects and religious images will become the hub of Suci’s enquiry into the commoditization and exploitation of belief in contemporary culture. Her research is intended to examine whether and how spirituality, even in systems permeated by market dynamics, injustice and oppression, can endure as a form of cultural resilience. ⁠ ⁠ This artistic project will culminate in a solo show at Museum MACAN in Jakarta in the summer of 2027; it will be presented again that autumn in Reggio Emilia, Italy, at Collezione Maramotti, which will acquire the works. #MaxMaraArtPrize #MaxMara

Dua pekan lagi hingga Museum MACAN buka kembali! Turut menampilkan presentasi istimewa dari perupa asal Sarawak, @marcoslah , bertajuk Kenyalang Circus.

Buka mulai 23 Mei 2026. Tiket prapesan akan segera tersedia secara daring. Nantikan informasi selanjutnya di media sosial Museum MACAN! — Just two weeks until Museum MACAN reopens! Also on view is a special presentation by a textile artist from Sarawak Marcos Kueh, titled Kenyalang Circus. Through his works, visitors are invited to reflect on how “tradition” continues to be negotiated within modernity, both through the visual language he presents and the industrial digital weaving techniques he employs. Opening from 23 May 2026. Presale tickets will be available online soon. Stay tuned for more updates on Museum MACAN’s social media channels! #MuseumMACAN #KenyalangCircus #MarcosKueh #pameranjakarta #museumjakarta

Max Mara, Collezione Maramotti and Museum MACAN are pleased to announce, along with prize curator Cecilia Alemani, that Dian Suci has been named winner of the tenth edition of the Max Mara Art Prize for Women.
