ikonoTV is the world’s first HD fine art television channel that broadcasts art 24/7 globally.

As of today, ikonoTV offers a free art stream for internet and SmartTV users. Its curated program leads the eye of the viewer through artworks from the most diverse cultures, showcasing contemporary pieces together with classical art.

The 'art film clip' format, exclusively seen on ikonoTV, was created through a collaborative effort between art curators, filmmakers, editors and artists. The films on ikonoTV tell a visual story, a comment-free art experience that allows for people to have an emotional response to the work of art.

With the addition of the ON DEMAND feature, a subscription-based program, ikonoTV permits viewers access to exclusively curated playlists of the world’s most famous artworks and art talks. Markevitch’s goal with ikonoTV, and specifically the On Demand feature, is to do for the art world what Pandora and Spotify did for music.
