Press Release

M&C Saatchi Group and Saatchi Gallery reveal the six global winners of the Art for Change Prize 2024, an international art initiative open to artists working in the first five years of their career. This year’s prize challenged emerging artists worldwide to tackle some of the world’s most pressing issues through the theme ‘Tomorrow’ing: Visions of a Better Future.’

With a grand prize of £10,000, the competition offers a platform for artists to envision solutions for a brighter tomorrow and showcase their work at Saatchi Gallery.

This year saw a 56% increase in entries, with 4,667 submissions from 140 countries, and over 53% coming from developing nations across Latin America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. The six selected winners, representing Mexico, Hong Kong, Australia, Spain, Morocco, and the UK, will present works that explore critical issues such as humanity’s relationship with the Earth, the impact of industry on sustainability, and the hopes and fears for future generations.

The winning artworks span a variety of media including painting, photography, video, and mixed-media installations. Through their art, the winners highlight urgent global issues, offering creative solutions and raising awareness about the challenges of our times.

Each winner will receive £2,000, and one overall winner—set to be announced at the exhibition launch on 28 November—will take home an additional £8,000.

The winners were selected by a distinguished panel of business and creative leaders from M&C Saatchi Group, along with esteemed guest judges from the arts and creative sectors.
