ART Karlsruhe

About

International Exhibition of Modern and Contemporary Art in Karlsruhe. Whether on the exhibition grounds or in the city: art also comes to life outside the exhibition halls

ART Karlsruhe brings the international art world to Karlsruhe, Germany, through a focused exhibition of modern and contemporary art. Here, galleries and dealers present painting, sculpture, and works on paper — alongside art design, fashion apparel, and entertainment offerings. That gives buyers and collectors plenty to explore across the fair. The event draws a professional audience: gallery owners, curators, interior designers, and private collectors who come to discover new artists, compare pieces, and build relationships with exhibitors. What really sets ART Karlsruhe apart is how the city itself becomes part of the experience. Art comes to life outside the exhibition halls as well as within them, with displays and installations extending into Karlsruhe's urban spaces. So for anyone sourcing contemporary art, art design, or fashion apparel in Germany, the fair offers a practical setting to meet galleries, review work in person, and keep up with what the market is showing. Plan your visit around the trade show calendar — and add ART Karlsruhe to your schedule.
