Brognon and Rollin win the 2026 Marcel Duchamp Prize
Paris-based artists David Brognon and Stéphanie Rollin have won the 2026 Marcel Duchamp Prize for contemporary art. The 26th edition highlights a collaborative practice shaped by two artists from Belgium and Luxembourg.
The announcement of the 2026 Marcel Duchamp Prize puts the spotlight on David Brognon and Stéphanie Rollin, based in Paris and working together as a single artistic duo. Respectively Belgian and Luxembourgish, they fit into a field where two practices can meet and produce one shared visual language.
For artists and for people who follow painting and drawing, this kind of award is also a reminder that an artwork is read through both its making and the attention it receives. A prize like this draws focus to the way a practice is built, tested and refined over time.
What makes this result interesting is the idea of authorship as a shared process. It points to an artistic métier in which collaboration can remain precise and coherent, while the work itself continues to shape how we look at images and at the ideas behind them.
