academy:square
Committed, innovative, original: young talent at art colleges has great potential.
A curated special exhibition of promising graduates from the art academies in Baden-Württemberg (Staatliche Akademie der Künste Karlsruhe, Staatliche Hochschule für Gestaltung Karlsruhe and Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste Stuttgart) is intended to support these young talents as they enter the art market, make them visible and enable them to discover unseen positions.
In co-operation with Monopol and the LBBW, up to six artists or collectives have been selected from each of these universities to show their work at the fair.
The future needs young talent – and young talent needs visibility.
With Academy Square, LBBW supports a platform for young artists from the region.
Support from LBBW
LBBW has also been supporting academy:square since 2024. In 2026, LBBW will present its own art prize for the first time – the LBBW academy:square award – which consists of adding an outstanding work by an artist to the collection.
