Curator, Contemporary Collection — Jury Chair, 2026 MA-g Awards
Halvorsen joined the Contemporary Collection as curator in 2021 after a decade split between independent design criticism and in-house creative direction, and chairs the jury for the 2026 MA-g Awards across all four submission categories.
Entries are reviewed anonymously by a five-person panel across two rounds, with the jury chair responsible for category calibration rather than individual scoring — ensuring photography, illustration, graphic design, and branding entries are judged on comparable terms.
