GODOT ART EXPO ’26 — VIP PREVIEW

For one evening on 6 October 2026, the Godot Art Expo’s full selection can be seen together before the general public arrives. The VIP Preview gives you the first opportunity to take your time looking, discovering and choosing.

Be first to see, first to choose

The year’s selection is on the walls, with the full body of artwork still together. For a few hours, there is an opportunity to explore it all in a relaxed setting.

Preview guests will have first access to the Expo’s works offered under its guerrilla pricing initiative, before the exhibition opens to the general public the following day.

We are not necessarily looking for the work that suits the wall. Rather, the one that makes the wall look different once it is there.

Programme

18:00 – Brief musical opening

The Godot Art Expo ’26 Preview will be opened with a short musical performance by Dóra Emese, jazz singer and a sculptor exhibiting at the Expo.

METAMORPH – art and eyewear design

METAMORPH SzemüvegSzabóság will also introduce itself at the opening, with a few exciting spectacle frames from previous collections.

The latest PHYSIS collection will make its debut on 9 October at a separate evening event at the Godot Art Expo. A separate ticket is available for the collection launch.

Encounters

During the evening, there will be opportunities to talk to the organisers of the Godot Art Expo and the invited guests of this year’s programme.

Artists whose careers are now becoming firmly established, and whose relationship with Godot began at the Art Expo, will also be there. Among the evening’s guests, we will also welcome representatives of the Hungarian University of Fine Arts: a collaboration between MKE JumpSTART and Godot Art Expo will present works by the next generation of artists in a dedicated exhibition section.
