Woman’s Essence gives visibility and public support to women in contemporary art. The project features contemporary women artists who challenge the traditional role of women in art, taking them from the passive object and muse and instead portraying them as active beings with agency and creative artists capable of expressing incredible sensitivity.

Founded by Natalia Gryniuk in 2015, the project has had seven successful editions in Milan, Paris, Madrid, Venice, Rome and Berlin, with more than 250 female artists having participated since the project’s inception. 

Participants of Woman’s Essence Show 2024 will be awarded with the Woman Art Award, a worldwide contemporary art prize created to discover, recognize and give support to a women artists. The prize aims to make a major contribution to the careers of artists involved in the dynamic cultural development of societies in transition, and give a voice to women artists and their issues that would otherwise remain unheard.
