LONDON, July 28, 2025 – Gallery NAT proudly unveils the results of its prestigious international art competition, "The Lost Vision – 2025 London Contemporary Art Review Exhibition," following a month-long global jury review and selection process. A total of 42 professional artists from 18 countries and regions have been awarded top honors, representing a broad spectrum of cultural voices and artistic innovation.
This year’s competition witnessed exceptional global engagement, with submissions arriving from across Europe, Asia, North America, and Africa. The jury – composed of independent curators, artists, professors, and interdisciplinary practitioners from the UK, US, France, Switzerland, and beyond – applied rigorous academic standards in selecting the winners. The evaluation was grounded purely on artistic merit, originality, conceptual depth, and alignment with this year’s theme: "The Lost Vision."

Rejecting geographic, racial, or identity-based biases, the panel focused on each artist’s portfolio strength, their creative interpretation of absence, dislocation, and poetic memory. "The Lost Vision" is not merely a metaphor for sight—it is a contemplation of vanishing cultural values, collective memory, and the fragile bridge between past and future.
