Ă–rebro OpenART
OpenArt changes Ă–rebro's city center with temporary contemporary art. The art exhibition is open to everyone and is experienced outdoors and without an entrance ticket. The tenth edition of the art biennial will take place between June 13 and September 6, 2026.
OpenArt is a permissive and democratic platform where everyone, regardless of background and circumstances, can be surprised and challenged.
With nine successful editions, in the summers of 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2022, 2024 and works of art in all imaginable and unimaginable forms and expressions, the exhibition has attracted great national and international interest.
OpenArt works on behalf of The Culture and Leisure Department in Ă–rebro Municipality to provide art experiences and make art accessible to children, young people and adults.
OpenArt's vision
OpenArt is the citizens of Ă–rebro's recurring art exhibition, outdoors, in the middle of the city. Through high artistic quality and freedom, the biennale creates inspiration, new thoughts, and conversations that promote democracy both during and between exhibition years. OpenArt is for everyone, and art must therefore be accessible to and engage everyone. It is a biennial with art from all over the world and constantly new experiences that attract both Ă–rebro residents and others to the city. It leads to an increased interest in art and culture, inspires development and makes Ă–rebro an attractive city to live and develop in. OpenArt strives for sustainability in our organization from a climate, economic and social perspective.
