Fifteen women artists aged between 42 and 89 who have made significant contributions to their creative disciplines were awarded $50,000 each — no strings attached — as part of contemporary photographer Susan Unterberg’s Anonymous Was A Woman grant. Named after a line in Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own, the prize is open to women-identifying artists 40 years of age or older. This year’s grant doubles the $25,000 award of previous years, bringing the total amount awarded to $750,000. The organization said the grant is intended to provide artists with the freedom to grow and develop their creative visions at a “critical junction” in their careers.
