International Instant Art Expo Bonn - May 16th - 18th 2025
The 6th edition of the international instant art exhibition at The Stage Gallery
You are warmly invited to the ‚X roid – Int’l Instant Art Expo‘ in Bonn – an international exhibition celebrating the magic of instant photography.
The Stage Gallery will present over 180 unique instant photos by 47 artists from 13 countries, including Italy, France, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Mexico, Australia, USA, Canada and others. This makes the „X roid“ one of the most important Polaroid events in Europe and also the only exhibition of its kind in Germany. As in previous years, many of the exhibiting artists will be present at the exhibition.
Discover the richness of instant art: spontaneous snapshots, staged scenes, and creative experiments on real Polaroid film – raw, poetic, and experimental.
In cooperation with the Italian Cultural Institute Cologne.
Come, join and let’s celebrate the beauty of the moment – instant & international.
Looking forward to seeing you!
