In making the selection Ms. Murray made the following statement: "Suzanne McClelland has been one of my favorite younger artists for many years. She is creative and inventive and, most of all, she takes chances. She is not satisfied with easy solutions. I can't think of anyone more deserving of this award. I am honored that AXA Art has asked me to select an artist for their 2006 Artist Award. This is the only program I know of that works so directly from artist to artist. Selecting Suzanne has been a very personal experience and the result is a most generous model for contemporary art patronage."
