This status as well as the quality and balance of its range are maintained by an international selection committee.
The number of participants, which is restricted to about 260 internationally renowned galleries, guarantees a transparent structure, but at the same time, offers a comprehensive overview of the 20th century art scene - from the Classical Moderns up to the latest art productions. Apart from the classics, the focal points of the range are 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's art.
Integrated into the exhibition area of KölnMesse GmbH's Rhineside Halls is the Köln Skulptur sector. In this presentation setting, which is unique worldwide, admission is exclusively limited to three-dimensional objects. This year, 21 young, up-and-coming artists will participate in the international sponsorship programme supported by the Federal Ministry of the Interior, the City of Cologne and KölnMesse.
22 young galleries, which at the invitation of a jury of experts, are able to participate at the fair thanks to sponsorship by the Stadtsparkasse Cologne's Culture Foundation (Stiftung Kultur), will also form their own section within the event. Each year, Art Cologne registers around 70,000 visitors.

daily from 11.00 a.m. to 7.00 p.m.
