Annka Kultys is the founder and director of one of the world’s leading galleries of new-media and digital art merging physical and digital experiences: Annka Kultys Gallery, established a decade ago and now headquartered in the beautiful 280-square-meter loft (just around the corner from Victoria Miro).
Described by the Financial Times as “early adopters of new technologies,” the Annka Kultys Gallery has presented more than 75 exhibitions and featured more than 175 artists, from established figures such as Cao Fei, Simon Denny, and Oliver Laric to a younger generation of AI artists including Jonas Lund, Anna Ridler and Sasha Stiles. As of 2020, the gallery is the first in the world to represent a humanoid robot artist: Ai-Da.
Since 2022, the gallery also runs Annka Kultys Phygital: a hybrid and virtual-reality space accessible via headset, and designed as an experimental platform for digital artists (developed in collaboration with GalleriesNow.net).
Annka holds two master’s degrees – an MSc in Mathematics from a university in Switzerland (where she grew up) and an MA in Contemporary Art from the Sotheby’s Institute in London. This dual focus gives her a unique understanding and passion for art, technology, and the digital world.

ANNKA KULTYS GALLERY is grateful for your interest but does not review new artists’ submissions.
OUR COMMITMENT TO ARTISTS WE (RE)PRESENT
For too long, conversations around the precarity of artists have remained passive — looking backwards, rehearsing familiar narratives of why artists are poor. ANNKA KULTYS GALLERY believes it is time to move beyond passive observation and to propose a structural shift that recognises artistic labour as work — and ensures it is rewarded as such.
For digital artists in particular, revenue cannot depend exclusively on a small group of collectors or on the very limited opportunities for commercial exhibitions.
From 1 October 2025, admission to our exhibitions will be by ticket. This is not a gesture of exclusion but of solidarity: a conscious rebalancing within the art ecosystem. By contributing to the cost of entry, visitors participate directly in the shared economy of art, acknowledging that creativity and production carry value.
Tickets are fully redeemable on the day of your visit against a curated selection of artists’ prints. If you prefer not to acquire anything, your contribution still matters. Between 50–100% of ticket proceeds go directly to the exhibiting artist, ensuring their practice is materially supported.
This model aligns with a growing recognition across museums, galleries, and cultural institutions worldwide: that sustainability in the arts depends on moving away from the expectation of unpaid or invisible labour. By attending, you are not only experiencing an exhibition — you are also becoming a patron and participant in a more transparent, equitable, and future-oriented art economy.
EMBRACING CRYPTO CURRENCIES AND THE BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGIES
Since January 2021, all our artworks are sold with a blockchain registered certificate of authenticity.
ANNKA KULTYS GALLERY is also accepting cryptocurrency as a form of payment for all artworks, analogue or digital.
