Anonymous Was A Woman

Discover over 250 contemporary women recipients of the "Anonymous Was A Woman" award.

Anonymous Was A Woman: The First 25 Years celebrates the transformative impact of women artists on contemporary art since the founding of the titular grant. In addition to new essays, the book offers a biographical description with selected artworks of each artist who received the Anonymous Was A Woman (AWAW) award from its founding in 1996 through 2020, a period in which the accomplishments of women have thoroughly transformed contemporary art.

In honour of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the AWAW award, this landmark publication commemorates 251 recipients. Surveying their careers offers a wealth of previously untold histories. Anonymous Was A Woman also includes contributions by coeditors Nancy Princenthal and Vesela Sretenovic, along with commentaries by other women scholars, as well as a round-table discussion featuring founder Susan Unterberg.
