ARTANKARA 2025

Where Art Belongs to Everyone

Art does not set boundaries. It does not need translation or explanation. It reveals itself in colors, lines, movement, and the silence between notes. ARTANKARA is where all of this comes together, a place where art is not observed from a distance but experienced up close.

From February 19 to 23, 2025, Ankara will once again become a hub for the art world. The 11th edition of ARTANKARA International Contemporary Art Fair will bring artists, collectors, galleries, and art lovers to ATO Congresium. It is more than a showcase. It is an opportunity to engage, discover, and see art from new perspectives.

Last year’s edition featured over 1,600 artists from 45 countries. More than 8,000 works were presented, drawing over 77,000 visitors who explored the creative worlds these artists shared. This year, ARTANKARA expands its program with new voices, fresh perspectives, and a deeper connection between art and audience.

One of the standout highlights will be the exhibition of contemporary Dutch art, where eight artists will showcase their work in a 500-square-meter space. It will offer an intimate look at the current artistic landscape of one of Europe’s most dynamic scenes.

A Meeting Place for Ideas, Conversations, and Discovery

Art does not remain still here. Visitors become part of it through discussions with artists, live performances, workshops, and exhibitions that erase the line between observer and creator. Interactive installations, panel talks, and opportunities to engage with artists and collectors make ARTANKARA an experience rather than just an event.

Whether you are a collector looking for emerging talent, an artist sharing your work, or simply someone drawn to the energy of contemporary art, you will find something that speaks to you. ARTANKARA is not a space where art is kept behind glass. It is where it comes alive.

February in Ankara Belongs to Art

In a world that is constantly shifting, art remains a way to connect, reflect, and understand what truly matters. ARTANKARA is an invitation to slow down, step in, and experience art in its most authentic form.

If art is something you feel rather than just see, then ARTANKARA 2025 is where you need to be.

Mark the dates, step into the experience. See you in Ankara.
