2024 Archibald Prize People's Choice Award won by Marcia Langton's portrait by Angus McDonald.

2024 Archibald Prize People's Choice Award goes to Aboriginal writer and academic Marcia Langton, captured by seven-time Archibald Prize finalist Angus McDonald in a portrait titled "Professor Marcia Langton AO." McDonald, who won the People's Choice award previously in 2020, creates a symbolic image of Langton handing over her baton to the next generation of activists after her lifetime of tireless commitment to Indigenous recognition and reconciliation in Australia. Art Gallery of NSW director Michael Brand lauds McDonald's work as a favorite among visitors to the exhibition.
