Art Week shows the diversity of Berlin as a place of sale, production and exhibition and presents itself as a showcase for the Berlin art scene.

Berlin Art Week offers new and surprising insights into private collections, project rooms and places of production in the city. With approximately 300 galleries, Berlin has the highest density of galleries in Germany.

From the very beginning, the Senate Department for Economics, Technology and Research has been supporting Art Week in order to provide a platform for the art scene in Berlin and for national and international collectors, artists and the interested public to meet. 

This year again the visitors to the event can marvel at the latest art trends and the works of established artists who will be presenting their pieces at the two exhibitions abc – art contemporary berlin and POSITIONS Art Fair.
