The Secret Art Prize is designed to propel emerging talent into the spotlight. Past winners have gained not only financial support but also lasting professional relationships — gallery representation, press coverage, and a platform at one of London's most respected contemporary art fairs.
Who this prize is for
Artists working across drawing, painting, print making, mixed media, and photography — especially those whose work explores surreal, urban, and unconventional territory. Curious Duke Gallery champions strange and beautiful imaginations, and the prize reflects that commitment.
Beyond the award
Winning The Secret Art Prize opens doors. Representation from Curious Duke Gallery means ongoing support, exhibition opportunities, and introduction to collectors and curators. The 2014 edition drew over 130 applicants and culminated in a popular exhibition — proof that the prize has been building momentum since its launch.
