SUPERMARKET - Stockholm Independent Art Fair
Stockholm Independent Art Fair brings together 65 artist-run galleries from 40 cities around the world in a vibrant meeting place for contemporary art. As Sweden's most international art exhibition, it offers a unique platform for discovery, dialogue, and long-term exchange between artists, audiences, and art professionals. In 2026, the 20th edition of SUPERMARKET will transform the Erskine Building in Slakthusområdet (the former meatpacking district) into a dynamic space filled with exhibitions, performances and conversations that reflect the diversity and urgency of artists' practice today. With its strong local roots and global reach, SUPERMARKET is a celebration of artistic collaboration and independent initiatives from across the world.
