Britain's What's On Event Guide
2025 Zari Art Prize
We are pleased to present the shortlisted artists whose contributions have been selected for the Zari Art Prize. Carefully chosen by our panel, these works exemplify the innovation and quality that we aspire to exhibit. This year’s entries to the Zari Art Prize have been remarkable, showcasing an outstanding range of creativity and vision from artists worldwide. Together, these works reflect the vitality of contemporary practice and the enduring capacity of art to communicate across cultures and disciplines.
Through painting, photography, and sculptural intervention, this exhibition invites viewers to consider how contemporary artists navigate questions of identity, technology, and transformation. Each artist offers a distinct and imaginative lens through which to experience the shifting terrain of the present moment.
The Zari Art Prize recognises and supports both emerging and established artists, awarding a total prize fund across three categories: Painting, Sculpture, and Photography. Each shortlisted work is exhibited across two weeks, offering artists an international platform in the heart of London’s West End.
Dedicated to excellence in contemporary art, the Prize honours those who expand how we see and understand the world around us. Through exhibition, promotion, and professional support, it offers artists meaningful opportunities for visibility and growth. Through our commitment to accessibility, we ensure that audiences can encounter and collect inspiring, high-quality works of art.
Each year, the Zari Art Prize also supports a chosen charity, reflecting a belief in art’s ability to connect people, foster empathy, and inspire positive change.
Guided by these principles, the Zari Art Prize continues to champion creativity as a universal language — one that enriches lives, strengthens communities, and advances cultural understanding.
