Good art doesn’t have to be unaffordable. The Affordable Art Fair proves this. From 13–15.06.2025, the art fair will move into Arena Berlin for the second time. Contemporary art priced between 100 and 10,000 euros from over 60 galleries across 19 countries will be on display. Artists include exciting newcomers, Berlin talents, and established names. There will be a dedicated wall for art that’s under 1,000 euros, free guided tours, and a special exhibition for up-and-coming artists titled Emerging Artists Berlin 2025. Among the promising names: Paula Hoffmann works with wonderfully spatial textiles; Anne Meerpohl’s water-colored forms float between corporeal and fluid; and Penny Monogiou explores motifs from ancient Greece, identity, and ideals of beauty in her mixed media paintings. What’s particularly special this year is that the Affordable Art Fair extends to the water. On the first two evenings, the Badeschiff — with its outdoor pool and beach bar — becomes part of the event. Tonight (12.06.), the fair opens with a festive vernissage — a perfect evening to stroll through the fair at your leisure, meet the artists at the Badeschiff, and toast to art (and summer) with a drink. The Late View with DJ Levente and cold drinks follows tomorrow (13.06.) — ideal if you prefer discovering art to a beat or want to avoid weekend crowds. bring curiosity, sunscreen, and an art collector’s eye. The rest will follow.
