Dinah Prentice (born 1935) is a British artist. She paints, and works in textile and in paper collage.[1]

Prentice was born in 1935.[2] She attended Haberdashers' Aske's School for Girls in London, and the Wyggeston Girls School in Leicester.[3] She then attended Birmingham College of Art and Crafts to study painting,[3] and the Royal Academy Schools in London.[4]

She met her husband, the painter David Prentice,[1] at Birmingham College of Art and Crafts.[4] They married in 1958 and had four daughters.[4] Together, she and David were founders of the Ikon Gallery in Birmingham in 1964.[3] They lived in Northamptonshire[4] and, from 1990,[4] Malvern Wells, and generally avoided exhibiting together.[5]

Her work is in public collections, including those of the Victoria & Albert Museum[6] and the Shipley Art Gallery.[3]

An exhibition of Prentice's work is scheduled to be held from 8 June to 24 August 2018[1] at the University of Birmingham, where her work Laced Threads is permanently installed.[3] The University has referred to her "lifelong commitment to a radical feminist enquiry as an alternative approach to the avant-garde art historical canon".[1]
