Her Court: The Role Wimbledon Played in the Suffragette Movement

A Young Masters Art Prize Exhibition Project

 

As Young Masters enters its 17th year, this edition marks our first museum collaboration, culminating in an exhibition at Wimbledon Museum entitled Her Court: The Role Wimbledon Played in the Suffragette Movement. The project brings contemporary artistic practice into dialogue with women’s suffrage, local history, cultural memory and the museum’s archives.

The open call has now closed and submitted proposals are currently under review. Selected artists will be announced soon. The exhibition will bring together imaginative contemporary responses across media, including painting, ceramics, drawing, sculpture, photography, textiles, performance, film and interdisciplinary practice.

 Young Masters is a curatorial platform that celebrates and supports emerging artists from across the world who are inspired by the art of the past.  

Young Masters was founded by gallerist Cynthia Valianti Corbett in 2009 as a not-for-profit juried Art Prize, inspired by her love of Art History and the Old Masters.

The success of the Prize has grown over six incredible editions and has spotted the talents of over 400 artists who are part of our alumni network.

Now, in 2025, our revitalised mission is to support emerging artists from across the world, bringing their work to a wider audience through a curated programme of pop-up exhibitions and fairs as well as maintaining a vibrant online presence that showcases our wide network of talented artists.

This global visibility and support can be career-making and life-changing, with opportunities for sales, exhibitions, gallery representation, press, and much more.
