The numerous one:artist shows are part of the successful concept of art karlsruhe. On a surface of at least 25 square meters, a gallerist dedicates his program to a selected artist, thus providing in-depth insight into artistic creation. Each year around 75 one:artist shows are shown at art karlsruhe, spread over all four halls. Each one:artist show of the fair is automatically nominated for the art karlsruhe prize.

We would like to continue this section of art karlsruhe which is perceived as integral and reputation-enhancing, and strengthen its basic idea.

A new feature is that only one one:artist show per gallery can take part in the competition for the art karlsruhe prize. This serves to concentrate the presentations and also to ensure fairness among each other: only one "ticket" per exhibitor.

art karlsruhe prize for the most compelling one:artist show

prize winner art karlsruhe 2024
The winner of the art karlsruhe Prize 2024 is the artist Carlo Krone with Galerie Fuchs

The art karlsruhe prize is awarded jointly by the state of Baden-Württemberg and the city of Karlsruhe and is endowed with € 15,000. A specialist jury selects the most convincing individual presentation from all the one:artist show presented at the fair.

Immediately after the award ceremony, works by the award-winning artist will be purchased from the gallery, which will then be transferred to the art karlsruhe Collection. This collection is managed by the Städtische Galerie Karlsruhe and supervised by the director Dr. Stefanie Patruno.
