About

Enter the Aesthetica Art Prize. Win £10,000, a major gallery exhibition & magazine publication. Open to all media & career stages. Challenge the world through art.

The Aesthetica Art Prize is a prestigious global platform that celebrates contemporary art across all genres and media, including painting, photography, digital art, video, and installation. Part of the UNESCO City of Media Arts network, the prize seeks work that reflects on life in the 21st century—addressing themes like globalization, the climate crisis, over-consumption, and our existence in a digitized, post-industrial landscape. The award offers significant career development, including a £10,000 main prize, exhibition at a major public gallery, and publication in Aesthetica Magazine. It is an open invitation for artists at any stage of their career to challenge existing parameters and contribute to a global dialogue through their creative practice.
