Teer Art is a private-sector initiative to promote modern and contemporary Iranian art through two simultaneous and sister events: Teer Art fair and Teer Art week. Once a year, Teer Art creates a space connecting local and international galleries, art collectors, industry professionals and visitors of all stripes. From emerging artists to established Modern masters, from urban installations to panel talks, Teer Art offers a complete insight into the exciting and fast-moving world of contemporary Iranian art. Teer Art fair aims to showcase Iran’s most innovative contemporary and modern art galleries, encompassing a very wide range of contemporary art practices. Seasoned collectors and first-time enthusiasts can view a wide selection of Iranian galleries under one roof, browse publications and attend talks.

6,000 people visited Teer Art fair’s first edition in June 2018. Teer Art fair edition 2 will take place in June 2019. Teer Art week is a week-long event taking place throughout Tehran and featuring gallery exhibitions, urban art installations, panel talks, studio visits and public tours. A novel initiative in Iran since 2019, Teer Art week offers local and international visitors the chance to discover and learn about contemporary Iranian art practices, discover new spaces, interact with local artists and enjoy the city through a curated art route.
