The Joan Miró Prize is an international award for an artist at a breakthrough stage in his/her career regardless of age, gender or cultural identity. The prize, with support from Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) and Cupra, pays tribute to the extraordinary work of Joan Miró, his significant contribution to modern art and his life-long support of younger artists.
The prize is awarded in recognition of recent work by artists demonstrating the same spirit of exploration, innovation, commitment and freedom that characterised Joan Miró's life and work.
First awarded in 2007, the prize is conferred by an international panel of judges made up of acclaimed professionals in the field of contemporary creation.
The nominated artists for the 2025 edition of the Joan Miró Prize are Jumana Emil Abboud, Arahmaiani, Bonnie Devine, Kapwani Kiwanga and Christodoulos Panayiotou.
