OpenArtExchange is an independent international art gallery that aims to bridge the gap between promising contemporary visual artists from non-Western countries (including Africa, South America, and Asia) and the Western art scene. Through their online platform, participation in international art fairs and festivals, cooperation with partners, and exchange programs, OpenArtExchange stimulates and connects artists from different cultural backgrounds. Situated in the museum quarter of Schiedam in the Rotterdam region of the Netherlands, OpenArtExchange hosts exhibitions, organizes events, and conducts various activities at its local art center.

They showcase a wide range of visual contemporary art while also exploring cross-overs with other art disciplines like dance, music, and poetry. OpenArtExchange values diversity, development, community, commitment, reasonability, and fun in all aspects of their work. They actively seek collaboration with artists, collectors, cultural institutions, and educational institutions to promote cultural awareness, international careers for artists, and a more diverse and dynamic contemporary art scene
