I am very proud to have gotten the honor of being jury chairman for the Prijs voor de Jonge Kunstkritiek 2022 (Prize for young art critics). The jury was very impressed with the quality of the submissions. I would like to congratulate all the winners; Lena van Tijen, Loren Snel, Lara den Hartog Jager for their wonderful essays. Congrats to Laura Herman, Zoë Dankert, Emma van Meyeren for their thoughtful and insightful reviews. And finally a big congrats to Zoë Dankert and Alix de Massiac for their podcast.
