The Max Mara Art Prize for Women is a biennial arts prize awarded to a young female artist working in the United Kingdom.[1]: 86  It is organised by the Max Mara fashion company and the Whitechapel Gallery in London. The prize includes a six-month residency in Italy, during which the artist creates an art project to be exhibited at the Whitechapel Gallery and at the Collezione Maramotti in Reggio Emilia, in Emilia-Romagna in northern Italy.

Between 2006 and 2016 the winners of the prize were Margaret Salmon, Hannah Rickards, Andrea Büttner, Laure Prouvost, Corin Sworn and Emma Hart.[2][3][4]
