Marjane Satrapi

Princess of Asturias Award for Communication and Humanities 2024

At its meeting in Oviedo, the Jury for the 2024 Princess of Asturias Award for Communication and Humanities, composed of Luis María Anson Oliart, Rosa María Calaf Solé, Irene Cano Piquero, Gabriela Cañas Pita de la Vega, Concepción Cascajosa Virino, Adela Cortina Orts, Estrella de Diego Otero, Miguel Falomir Faus, Taciana Fisac Badell, Álex Grijelmo García, Alma Guillermoprieto, Miguel Ángel Liso Tejada, Catalina Luca de Tena y García-Conde, marquesa del Valle de Tena, Miguel Ángel Oliver Fernández, Enrique Pascual Pons, Carmen Riera i Guilera and Diana Sorensen, chaired by Víctor García de la Concha and with Óscar Loureda Lamas acting as secretary, has decided to confer the 2024 Princess of Asturias Award for Communication and Humanities on Marjane Satrapi.

The Jury recognizes in the cartoonist, film director and painter of Iranian origin an essential voice in the defence of human rights and freedom. Satrapi is a symbol of civic engagement led by women. Due to her audacity and artistic production, she is considered one of the most influential people in the dialogue between cultures and generations. The Award wishes to highlight Marjane Satrapi's talent for reinventing the relationships between art and communication, as in her graphic novel Persepolis, in which she exemplarily captures the search for a more just and inclusive world.
