Galerie Chantal Crousel congratulates Mona Hatoum on being awarded the Hamburger Bahnhof Lifetime Achievement Award 2026.

The award was presented by Frances Morris, Director Emerita of Tate Modern, and honours artists whose work has significantly shaped contemporary culture worldwide and who have a longstanding connection to Berlin and Germany.

Born in 1952 in Beirut, Mona Hatoum has lived in London since 1975. In 2003/04, she was a fellow of the DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Program; for many years, since then, she maintained a studio in Berlin alongside London. The artist has presented her work in numerous major exhibitions worldwide, including several in Berlin.

An exhibition by Mona Hatoum is currently on view at the Fondazione Prada in Milan, featuring three large-scale installations, until November 9, 2026.
