Art Genève 

Salon d’Art

Palexpo

In 2026, Art Genève delivered an ambitious new edition, bringing together more than 80 galleries specialising in modern and contemporary art. The quality of the selected participants shaped a diverse parcours, driven by the singularity of the approaches and media represented, ranging from painting and video to sculpture and new digital forms. While the fair continues to assert its place within the calendar of major international events, it preserves its intimate atmosphere and its unifying ethos: to build bridges, cultivate a living authenticity, and stimulate and nurture relationships on both a national and international scale.

To strengthen its national roots, the Prix Mobilière rewarded a young Swiss talent, confirming the fair’s commitment to supporting emerging artists. Institutions, art centres, foundations and museums from Switzerland and abroad further enriched the panorama, presenting projects specially conceived for Art Genève and expanding the exhibition circuit.

Introduced in 2024, the Sur-Mesure section continued to challenge conventional formats by showcasing monumental works. Installations and performances within the Music program immersed visitors in sound-based works unfolding beyond the fair’s walls. The visit was extended into the art publishers’ quarter, where art books entered into dialogue with the artworks, as well as through a series of talks designed to shed light on the current issues shaping the contemporary art world.
