Mariane Ibrahim Gallery has won the Armory Show’s inaugural Presents Booth Prize, and a $10,000 award, the fair announced on March 2. The prize was bestowed in recognition of the Seattle gallery’s solo presentation of work by German-Ghanaian artist Zohra Opoku.
“We are deeply humbled and honored to receive this prize,” Ibrahim said in a statement. She dedicated the win to Opoku, “whose commitment and excellence in her art practice has helped bring new narratives into an exciting global narrative.”
