There are different kinds of Art exhibitions, like Retrospective s, individual expositions, group expositions, or expositions on a specific topic. The practice of art exhibitions dates back to at least 1673 , when the royally sanctioned French institution of art patronage, the Académie Royale De Peinture Et De Sculpture (a division of the Académie Des Beaux-arts ), held its first semi-public art exhibit at the Salon Carré. Beginning in 1725 the salon was held in the Palace Of The Louvre , when it became known as '' Salon De Paris ''. Modern history of art exhibitions starts with the 1913 Armory Show in New York . It was the first time that Europe an Avant-garde art was presented in the New World . Most prominent art exhibition of Contemporary Art is the 1955 founded Documenta in Kassel , Germany . It takes place every five years, presenting international artists and art trends. Of similar prominence is the Biennale in Venice , Italy , which is held biannually. Art works are presented in pavilions per country at this exhibition. Other trendsetting art exhibitions of contemporary art were ''"A New Spirit in Painting"'' ( London , Royal Academy Of Arts , 1981 ), ''"Zeitgeist"'' ( Berlin , Martin Gropius Bau , 1982 ), and ''"Metropolis"'' ( Berlin , Martin Gropius Bau , 1991 ).
