TERRA is a monumental contemporary art exhibition with leading international artists and galleries set in the heart of the Burgundy’s UNESCO world heritage vineyards, unearthing dialogues between contemporary art, heritage, and winemaking.

TERRA exhibition opens the weekend following Art Basel Paris 2026 and runs through November 15th, with the closing weekend coinciding with the world’s most important charity wine auction, the 166th Hospices de Beaune hosted by Sothebys.

Founded in 2023, TERRA is a unique initiative and exhibition where art, heritage and winemaking respond to each other. TERRA explores the notion of ‘terroir,’ or sense of place. For this year, TERRA focus on three notions, Ecology, Ritual and Mapping, through the exhibition, traditions of making are celebrated and historical sites are revisited. Sites are carefully curated and diverse artistic voices are invited from around the world, championing cultural exchange across crafts, histories and geographies. Emphasising storytelling and storyliving, TERRA is an exceptional coming together of art, heritage, viticultural landscapes, and lovers of both wine and art.

TERRA 2026 will continue its investigation of ‘terroir’ expanding on the notions of ecology, time, and place. Under the direction of Artistic Director Jenn Ellis and Executive Director Milena Berman, this edition of TERRA transforms four historic, private locations into considered and vibrant exhibition spaces, featuring multidisciplinary works by leading and emerging artists from around the world. The exhibition interweaves various mediums, spanning painting, sculpture, ceramics, video and site-specific installations. The artworks are selected through an open call as well as direct collaboration with artists and galleries.
