Per today's announcement, the Gish Prize is awarded "to a highly accomplished artist from any discipline who has pushed the boundaries of an art form, contributed to social change, and paved the way for the next generation." The selection committee chose DuVernay from nearly 60 finalists in visual and performing arts, literature and arts administration.
This year’s selection committee was chaired by Jamie Bennett, executive director of ArtPlace America, and included Patricia Cruz, executive director of Harlem Stage; Joseph V. Melillo, executive producer emeritus at BAM; Meredith Monk, winner of the 2017 Gish Prize; and Zeyba Rahman, senior program officer of the Building Bridges Program of the Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art.
