#DominiqueWhite, winner of the ninth edition of the #MaxMaraArtPrize for Women 2022-24 with her proposal "Deadweight", in May 2023 has begun her bespoke six-month residency in Italy, organised by #CollezioneMaramotti.
The prize, a longstanding initiative and collaboration between Max Mara, Whitechapel Gallery and Collezione Maramotti, is set up to support and nurture women-identifying artists at a crucial stage in their career who have not previously had a major solo exhibition.
White, after participating in a workshop at the Pontificia Fonderia di Campane Marinelli in Agnone, one of the oldest bell foundries in the world, travelled to Palermo to deepen her knowledge of the history of the slave trade in the Mediterranean, with the support of Giovanna Fiume, Professor of Modern History at the University of Palermo.
