WOMEN ART OPEN

In March 2026, the second edition of WOMEN ART OPEN 2026 took place in Berlin – a city-wide programme aimed at raising the profile of women artists.

Following its successful launch in 2025, the initiative has grown significantly this year: 54 public galleries, museums, art associations and project spaces are presenting around 40 exhibitions, including solo and group shows as well as thematic presentations within a feminist context. Around 200 historical and contemporary women artists were the focus of around 100 events. In addition, digital web archives featuring over 500 women artists were available to view online. 

WOMEN ART OPEN represents a joint effort by numerous Berlin institutions – from major museums to independent project spaces – and sends a strong signal for diversity, networking and the empowerment of women artists. Exhibitions, guided tours, workshops, artist talks, as well as performative and interdisciplinary programmes: one month, many art venues, shared visibility!
