London Art Biennale 2025

The prestigious London Art Biennale is back for its seventh edition, taking place from July 16th to 20th, 2025, at the historic Chelsea Old Town Hall. This renowned international art event will showcase an exceptional selection of contemporary artworks from over 300 artists worldwide, each chosen for their quality, creativity, and unique artistic vision.

What sets the London Art Biennale apart is its commitment to excellence. Artists are selected solely on the basis of their artwork, without consideration of their career achievements, background, or reputation. The rigorous selection process ensures that the Biennale remains a true celebration of artistic merit, showcasing pieces that reflect the highest standards of creativity and talent.

The 2025 edition will feature a diverse range of mediums, including painting, sculpture, digital art, photography, and installations. With no thematic or geographical restrictions, the Biennale offers a unique platform for emerging and established artists to present their work on an international stage, allowing visitors to experience the vast richness of global contemporary art.

Highlights of the Biennale include:

• Curated Exhibition: Featuring over 300 artists from across the globe, selected purely on the strength of their artistic vision and creative expression. The Biennale will present an array of mediums, from traditional painting and sculpture to innovative digital art, photography, and installations.

• Thought-Provoking Themes: The exhibition explores contemporary issues, emotions, and narratives, offering visitors an opportunity to engage with art that reflects the world’s cultural and social dynamics.

• Awards and Prizes: The Biennale offers substantial monetary prizes, totaling £11,000, to recognize exceptional creativity and talent. Additional awards include honourable mentions and special recognitions, celebrating artists whose works leave a profound impact.

“The London Art Biennale is dedicated to showcasing the best in contemporary art from around the world. Our focus is on the quality and creativity of each piece, providing a platform for artists who truly push the boundaries of their artistic vision,” said Peter Gagliardi, Director of the Gagliardi Gallery and organiser of the event.

In addition to its dedication to artistic excellence, the London Art Biennale is committed to supporting charitable causes. Over the years, the event has raised and donated tens of thousands of pounds to organisations such as Rotary International’s “End Polio Now” Charity, the Salvation Army, London’s Air Ambulance, and Age UK. This tradition will continue in 2025, further enriching the Biennale’s legacy of cultural and social contribution.
