Art Karlsruhe returns for its 23rd edition from February 5–8, 2026, at Messe Karlsruhe in Rheinstetten, Germany. The fair brings together roughly 180 galleries from 18 countries, spanning 120 years of art history with dedicated halls for classical Modernism and contemporary art. New participants include Boston's Chase Young Gallery and Tehran's Maryam Fasihi Harandi Gallery, alongside a strong German contingent. Special sculpture areas feature works by Robert Schad, Martin Hollebecq, Koloman Wagner, and Sonja Edle von Hoeßle.
The fair's distinctive model—bridging historical movements like Concrete art, Art Informel, and Pop art with cutting-edge contemporary work—positions it as a key event for collectors and enthusiasts in the trinational border region of Germany, Switzerland, and France. Its emphasis on sculpture and emerging artists, combined with a broad international roster, underscores its role in shaping both market trends and curatorial dialogue across generations.
