With a vast programme of activities, from immersive talks to book fairs, ArtGenève is the perfect way to kickstart your art calendar. Choose from three hour-long guided tours: The ‘Art Market’ tour, which delves into the economics of the art world; the ‘Art History’ tour, a fascinating examination of art’s evolution from classical to contemporary; and the ‘Family Tour’, an interactive experience that brings art to life for younger audiences.
Now a staple in the European Winter Art calendar, ArtGenève has firmly established itself since its inception in 2012. The fair celebrates the best of contemporary and modern art, showcasing an expansive collection from more than 80 leading art galleries alongside curated pieces from private collections, institutions and art centres.

Another highlight is the fair’s impressive daily talks, each offering thought-provoking discussions on a broad spectrum of topics. Expect a lively exchange of ideas and expert opinions that invite you to challenge perceptions and deepen understanding. This year also marks a groundbreaking debut as the Plaza Foundation will unveil an exciting project fusing cinema and contemporary art in an imaginative new format.
The art fair is also a chance to recognise exceptional talent. ArtGenève presents two coveted awards during the event. The first is the Prix Solo, which honours the most compelling solo exhibition, selected from 30 outstanding showcases. The second, the Prix Mobilière, celebrates a rising Swiss talent from a selection of artists nominated by seven renowned figures in the art industry. This year marks the 13th edition of ArtGenève which runs from January 30th to February 2nd and will be hosted at Palexpo, just a stone's throw from Geneva International Airport.
