We’re thrilled to bring the Wildlife Artist of the Year 2025 exhibition – the grand finale of our annual art competition – back to the iconic Mall Galleries, London this September.
Renowned as one of the world’s most prestigious wildlife art competitions, this annual event celebrates exceptional artistic talent across all career stages, from rising stars to established names.
A new selection of shortlisted works is unveiled in London each year, handpicked by an expert judging panel. The exhibition offers a rich and varied display, featuring everything from bold oil paintings and intricate pencil drawings to eco-conscious sculptures and inventive mixed-media creations, all inspired by the beauty and fragility of the natural world.
Our online exhibition is now open, so you can browse the entire collection of shortlisted artworks, discover the stories behind each piece, and purchase your favourites directly through our website.
