What makes London’s art scene so vibrant? What are the concerns of the next generation of artists and their insights in challenging times? This triennial exhibition showcases the most dynamic talent from across the capital. Discover new work reflecting on topics ranging from the personal to the collective, the cathartic to the poetic, the political to the environmental. Running since 1932, this much-celebrated open submission show features 46 London-based artists working across painting, sculpture, moving image, installation and performance.
The artists included in the London Open were selected from over 2,600 entries by a panel of experts including collector Maria Bukhtoyarova, artist Shezad Dawood, curator and art historian Christine Eyene, gallerist Stephan Tanbin Sastrawidjaja, with Whitechapel curators Emily Butler, Inês Costa and Wells Fray-Smith.
