The shortlist for the 2026 David and Yuko Juda Art Foundation Grant, which awards £50,000 to a living artist, providing meaningful financial support and the freedom to focus on the development of their practice, has been announced.

Established in 2017, the David and Yuko Juda Art Foundation will award its grant for the seventh time in 2026. Each year, an invited curator nominates a shortlist of artists for consideration.

The shortlisted artists will be presented in an exhibition at Annely Juda Fine Art’s new gallery at 16 Hanover Square, Mayfair, from 10 – 19 September 2026. This marks the first Foundation exhibition to be held in the gallery’s new premises.
