TRIBECA FESTIVAL AND CHANEL UNVEIL PARTICIPANTS FOR THE 2023 ARTIST AWARDS PROGRAM
The year's curation of all women artists showcases the strength, beauty and diversity of female creatives
NEW YORK, NY- May 31, 2023 - Tribeca Festival and CHANEL today announced the artists selected as part of the 2023 Artist Awards Program. As in previous years, Tribeca and CHANEL bring together esteemed artists to generously donate an original work, which will be awarded to winning filmmakers of the Festival, which runs June 7-18.
This year, the remarkable, all women-cohort of 10 acclaimed artists invited by Tribeca and CHANEL to celebrate their fellow storytellers are Ana Benaroya, Beverly Fishman, Christie Neptune, Lisa Lebofsky, Natia Lemay, Patricia Encarnacion, Renee Cox, Sheree Hovsepian, Shinique Smith, and Wanda Raimundi-Ortiz. The selection of artists and their work has been led by curator Racquel Chevremont.
Tribeca and CHANEL recognize the significance of representation and the undeniable impact women artists can have when their work and stories are in the spotlight, said Tribeca Festival Co-Founder and Tribeca Enterprises CEO Jane Rosenthal. We are dedicated to celebrating creativity and culture, fostering diverse voices, and encouraging the development of a new generation of visionaries. Our eighteen-year partnership with CHANEL underscores our joint commitment to honoring powerful storytelling, artistic excellence, and the spirit of artists supporting other artists. We invite audiences to join us in this celebration and discover the transformative power of women's artistry, which reflects our reality and shapes our understanding of the world.
This signature cultural event recognizes the intersection between creative fields and celebrates New York City's continued spirit of cultural innovation. The tradition of supporting artistic creativity and vision goes back to the inception of the Tribeca Festival, which was founded with a mission to rebuild and regenerate the renowned artistic hub of New York City in the wake of September 11th. Since the Festival's inception, studio artists witnessed the positive impact it was forming in the community and wanted to be involved to directly support and celebrate other storytellers. This solidarity and generosity has remained a core value of the Tribeca Festival and the Artist Awards is a yearly reminder of that.
When I was approached to curate the Artist Awards for a second year, it was important that this iteration have a profound social impact, showcasing the strength, beauty and diversity of women. Our focus is on giving women in the arts their flowers and celebrating their trailblazing contributions to contemporary art, said the 2023 Artist Awards curator Racquel Chevremont. Throughout recorded history, from the cave painting to the camera, women have been driving forces in art around the world. Yet female creatives remain woefully underrepresented. It's imperative that we continue to solicit and showcase the work of women artists.
CHANEL is honored to continue its support of the annual Artist Awards Program, which celebrates the leading filmmakers and artists of our time. Art has been an integral role at the House of CHANEL throughout history. House founder and visionary Gabriel Chanel surrounded herself with the leading artists of her time, drawing inspiration and support from her fellow creative peers. CHANEL's collaboration with the Tribeca Festival is a testament to the brand's continuous commitment to creation and artistry in their varied forms.
This year's art collection will be displayed at the Tribeca Festival Hub at Spring Studios throughout the Festival.

About the Artists
Ana Benaroya:
Ana Benaroya's (b. 1986, New York, NY) work centers substantial female subjects, whose extravagant musculatures upset more traditional expectations of femininity. Through her paintings and works on paper, Benaroya constructs a female gaze that recasts women in dominant roles, with an assertive, idiosyncratic presence. The m
