Artist celebrating Art – for a world with color for everyone

Our concept
Gallery 20x20 shows quality art, makes original art accessible and affordable, and uses art to make our world a better place. Making quality art
The art in our gallery will be shown without revealing the artists name. Therefore the art piece becomes significant only because the viewer can enter into a dialogue with it and not because there is a name attached with it. We want to show our visitors a well-balanced exhibition, where pieces or professionals and semiprofessionals and students are presented side by side on equal footing. Outstanding works by participating artists shall be honored by two different awards, given by a panel of art experts as well as the visitors of our gallery. Making original art accessible and affordable
As we live in a time when everything everywhere can be easily reproduced, we aim to give back value to original creation. The gallery seeks to honor distinctive, individual, and original work as a result of a personal creative process which everyone can afford. All exhibited works are for sale and are sold to the first bidder for the fixed uniform price of 20 Swiss Francs. Names of artist and titles of their work will only be revealed after the end of the exhibition. Making the world a better place by using art
Gallery 20x20 is a place to acquire art, meet people, to communicate and to network. The proceeds from the sale of art goes entirely to an exceptional non-profit organization committed to the advancement of the arts and having a reputation of financial transparency. This year’s proceeds will be given to ARTHELPS and will fund a project to support underprivileged people discover and develop their artistic potential by providing them a platform where they can express themselves. www.arthelps.ch
