FAIR FOR ART Vienna

After 10 years, Künstlerhaus, one of Vienna's most traditional exhibition venues, is once again opening its doors to a contemporary art fair for the first time.

From 1997, the Wiener Künstlerhaus provided the platform for the Vienna International Art Fair for two decades. In the course of the extensive renovation by Hans Peter Haselsteiner and the reorientation of the Künstlerhaus, the event was moved to the Aula der Wissenschaften in 2016. In 2026, FAIR FOR ART returns to its original location as a renowned Viennese art fair with a high-quality contemporary program for international and local collectors.

This year, FAIR FOR ART Vienna remains true to its successful claim of presenting contemporary art at a first-class level. Internationally outstanding artists' names are synonymous with the high quality and diversity of the fair program. The participating art experts provide well-founded expertise on current developments in contemporary art. They offer the highlights of their portfolio – state-of-the-art works by globally recognized and promising younger artists who are the focus of collectors. International greats such as Helmut Ditsch, Alex Katz and Andy Warhol meet art icons from Austria, such as Gottfried Helnwein, Wolfgang Hollegha, Hermann Nitsch, Hubert Scheibl and Erwin Wurm. The exhibition features around 800 paintings and sculptures by approximately 200 artists, highlighting diverse artistic positions and captivating themes. Among them are many never-before-shown masterpieces by important Austrian artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. More information about the fair can be found here.

Horst Szaal, fair organizer: “We are very pleased that FAIR FOR ART Vienna can once again take place in the Wiener Künstlerhaus after 10 years. The affinity for this house has always remained unbroken.

And together with 28 renowned galleries and art dealers, we are creating a fair that is perceived by art experts and collectors as one of the most prestigious and influential platforms for modern and contemporary art in Austria.”
