100 Emerging Artworks is an internationally recognized annual art initiative by Arts to Hearts Project, created to spotlight and celebrate the most promising emerging artists worldwide.
Established in 2023, the project was designed to give artists a serious platform for global visibility through rigorous curation and high-quality publications. Each year, 100 artists are hand-selected and featured in a prestigious hardcover art book, distributed to collectors, galleries, curators, and art professionals around the world.
The project has quickly built a strong reputation, collaborating with respected names in the art world:
2023 Edition – in collaboration with Milan Art Institute
2024 Edition – in collaboration with Danielle Krysa (The Jealous Curator)
Across its first two editions, 200 artists from over 35 countries have been featured, many of whom have since gained international exhibitions, gallery representation, and recognition from prominent collectors.
The books have become collector’s editions, available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and global art bookstores, making them a valuable addition to any artist’s professional portfolio.
With each edition, 100 Emerging Artworks continues to grow as a trusted, career-elevating platform for artists ready to be seen on an international stage.

The 100 Emerging Artworks of 2025 does not follow a fixed theme because we believe that every artist has a unique story, vision, and voice that deserves to be seen in its purest form.
This open call is intentionally open to interpretation. Whether your work is abstract or figurative, conceptual or narrative, deeply personal or socially engaged, we want to see the art that represents you. From painting, sculpture, and mixed media to photography, digital art, and installations, all mediums and styles are welcome.
This openness allows artists the freedom to submit works that best reflect their current practice, creative exploration, and individual perspective, making this book a true representation of the diverse and dynamic voices shaping contemporary art today.
You’re not tied to any specific style, medium, or subject. Whether you work with paint, clay, a camera, or digital tools, all forms of creativity are welcome. Maybe you want to experiment with something entirely new, or perhaps you want to refine a technique or concept you’ve been working on for years. From abstract designs to deeply personal pieces, there’s space for it all.
This is your chance to create work that reflects your voice and experiences. The openness of the theme is built to celebrate individuality and diversity, inviting artists to bring their unique vision to life. It’s not about fitting into a mold; it’s about showing the world how you see, feel, and think.
With no predefined rules, this is an opportunity to take risks, challenge yourself, and push the boundaries of your art. Whether you approach your work with boldness or quiet introspection, what matters is that it’s true to you. Every piece has value because every perspective is different.
We can’t wait to see the variety of work that emerges from this open theme, each piece telling its own story in its own way. This award is about recognizing the beauty in creativity without limits, and we’re excited to welcome your ideas into the conversation.
