The winner is Lucy Lippard, curator, writer, and activist. Formal presentation by Hans Haacke
The Center for Curatorial Studies at Bard College (CCS Bard) is presenting its 13th annual award to curator, writer, and activist Lucy Lippard. For more than four decades, Lippard's insightful, timely, and at times radical curatorial and critical endeavors have made a profound and resonant impact on our understanding of the art of our time. From her pioneering early support of conceptual artists such as Sol LeWitt and Lawrence Weiner, and her advocacy of feminist art, to her groundbreaking work as a writer and critic, Lippard's contributions to the field of contemporary art are countless. The formal presentation of the award by artist Hans Haacke will be made at a gala dinner.
