You can now explore 3D exhibitions in Art.Spaces using only your keyboard! This makes the experience much smoother for screen reader users and visitors with limited mobility.
Exhibitors can now create and edit wall texts directly from the artwork form in art.depot. No more switching between menus — it’s all in one place for faster, smoother workflows!
The Exhibition Manager now includes a search function that lets you quickly find exhibitions by title or ID. This is especially useful for users managing a large number of exhibitions—saving time and keeping things organized.
We’ve launched a public changelog to keep you informed about updates, new features, and fixes on Kunstmatrix. Now you can easily stay in the loop with everything that’s new and improved.
Resolved an issue where currency-specific country icons were not displaying correctly in the artwork form. This ensures a more intuitive and visually consistent pricing input experience.

We’re excited to announce the official release of the Artwork Bulk Importer! This powerful new tool allows you to upload and manage large volumes of artworks in one streamlined process. Whether you're setting up a big exhibition or updating your collection, bulk importing saves time, reduces manual work, and helps you stay organized.
Included Space #154 is now available in both its original turquoise (legacy) and a new matte blue finish. This offers more visual flexibility when designing exhibitions. Existing exhibitions remain unchanged—this is an additional option you can choose going forward.

The artwork preselection now shows when an artwork is already used in other exhibitions. You’ll see icons next to each exhibition title indicating its status (public, in prep, or archived). Clicking on a title opens the exhibition directly with the selected artwork as the target—making cross-exhibition management much smoother.
Super useful for curators juggling multiple shows.
You can now export the list of artworks from any exhibition directly to an Excel file—including thumbnail images! This makes it easier to archive, share, or manage your exhibitions outside the platform.

Existing exhibitions using the Loft are not affected—this update applies only to new setups going forward.
Most spaces on the marketplace now showcase example exhibitions below the 3D preview!
We display only public, listed exhibitions that have a custom poster image. A maximum of 25 exhibitions are shown in a randomized order. If a space has fewer than 3 qualifying exhibitions, the block will be hidden automatically. ✨
