Aesthetica Art Prize 2024

This is the place. We invite you to discover the Aesthetica Art Prize 2024. This year, we're delighted to present 21 shortlisted creatives, as well as a longlist of more than 250 artists. Their work is categorised here by genre, prompting viewers to consider important questions about the evolving relationship between humans and the natural world, the fluidity of medium, and the power of claiming identity. From painting, photography and sculpture to video, mixed-media and installation, everything begins with an idea. These works are active not passive, and, together, they create a new dialogue that defies paradigms, contributing to the progression of the human story. These artists will leave a legacy, influencing generations to come.
