The Women in Art London Biennale 2026 is an international exhibition dedicated to showcasing outstanding contemporary art created by women from around the world. Bringing together established and emerging artists, the Biennale offers visitors an opportunity to experience a rich variety of artistic practices, cultures, and creative perspectives in one of London's most distinguished exhibition venues. 

Presented by Artio Gallery, the exhibition highlights carefully selected artists working across painting, sculpture, photography, mixed media, textile art, ceramics, and digital media. Each artwork contributes to a dialogue that reflects the diversity, originality, and strength of contemporary artistic expression. 

Beyond the exhibition itself, the Biennale creates opportunities for artists to connect with collectors, curators, gallery owners, designers, and art enthusiasts through a dynamic programme of events, networking, artist talks, and award presentations. It is designed to encourage meaningful professional relationships while providing visitors with direct access to the artists and their work.
