At the ING Discerning Eye Exhibition, small is beautiful. Now in its 31st year, the annual treat for London gallery-goers showcases artworks no larger than 50 centimetres in size, all of which are for sale and ideal for those with limited space. The works are largely affordable too, with prices starting at £80. The 2022 exhibition is showcasing over 500 artworks by more than 350 artists. It's a carefully curated selection, whittled down from 7,300 entries.



GURINDER CHADHA selected - Lola Betiku, Ladies First, Acrylic paint, Gold leaf

The artworks in the exhibition are chosen by six art world experts – two artists, two critics and two collectors – who curate their own sections as individual displays within the exhibition. This year, the team comprises RWA director Alison Bevan, film director Gurinder Chadha, curator Aindrea Emelife, ArtCan director Kate Enters, printmaker David Ferry and painter Ansel Krut. As is tradition, at least 25% of the works have been chosen from open submissions, the rest are included by invitation.


You can expect original works in a dizzying variety of materials, ranging from traditional painting and photography to daring prints and witty sculptures. There are also some topical offerings referencing key events of the past 12 months, from the England women's team winning the FIFA Women's World Cup to nods to the late Queen Elizabeth II.



AINDREA EMELIFE selected - Greg Kent, Lace Oak Hollow Form in Honey, Wood


In addition to bringing together a diverse array of art, the ING Discerning Eye Exhibition also gives new and undiscovered artists the chance to showcase their work alongside established names. There are a range of prizes on offer for exhibitors, totalling more than £12,000 in value, plus a bursary and mentoring opportunities. Every sale helps fund future initiatives to platform the work of lesser-known artists.


So whether you're looking for something to brighten your walls or a truly original Christmas gift, you'll find pocket-sized wonders at The ING Discerning Eye Exhibition.


The ING Discerning Eye Exhibition runs from 11 - 20 November at Mall Galleries, and online until 31 December.
