LA Art Show Jan. 7th-11th, 2026 at the LA Convention Center- Preview, Tickets
LA Art Show, LA’s largest and longest-established art fair, returns to the Los Angeles
Convention Center’s West Hall on January 7 to 11, 2026, marking its 31st year. Tickets
are now available at www.laartshow.com with the American Heart Association serving
as the charity beneficiary, receiving 15% of proceeds from every ticket sold for their Life
is Why ™ campaign. As one of the few remaining privately owned and operated Los
Angeles art shows of such magnitude, the LA Art Show contributes a sense of
authenticity to the city's art scene, reflecting the vibrant and multicultural essence of its
host community.
Under the direction of producer and director Kassandra Voyagis, the fair’s growing
global presence will be showcased. "Although it was an unimaginable time for the city,
we are thankful that so many people came out for last year’s remarkable 30th
anniversary edition during which we got to support the artistic community while also
paying homage to the resilience of Los Angeles," Voyagis remarks. "We are thrilled to
once again unite galleries, artists and enthusiasts from across the globe to participate in
and celebrate the city’s rich cultural legacy."
LA Art Show’s non-commercial platform DIVERSEartLA, curated by Marisa Caichiolo,
returns to explore the evolving landscape of contemporary art through the lens of
biennials and museums, emphasizing their complementary roles and tensions. The
educational platform will highlight how both serve as vital platforms for artistic
innovation, dialogue, and engagement. Caichiolo will also oversee the curation of a
Latin American Pavilion, bringing the flavor of emerging artists from other regions of the
American Continent.
Provident Fine Art, located in Palm Beach, is set to make its LA Art Show debut with a
distinctive solo exhibition showcasing Sylvester Stallone's abstract canvas paintings.
Stallone has employed painting as a vital form of expression since his adolescence, and
as a prolific screenwriter, he often turned to art to assist in the development of his iconic
characters. Exclusively represented by Provident Fine Art, this exhibition will signify his
first major showcase in years with the majority of the works available for purchase. His
artworks have previously been displayed in retrospective exhibitions at museums in St.
Petersburg, Russia, and Nice, France.
With over 90 exhibitors, LA Art Show 2026 will feature continued collaborations with
international and local galleries including LICHT FELD Gallery (Switzerland); Rebecca
Hossack Art Gallery (U.K), Coral Contemporary Gallery (Miami), K+Y Contemporary Art
(Paris), Arcadia Contemporary (New York) and Fabrik Projects (Los Angeles). Rehs
Galleries, a New York-based gallery showcasing historic and contemporary art will
return, having participated in the LA Art Show since its inception in 1994.
The 2026 iteration will feature the show’s first exhibitor from Ireland, Dublin-based
Oliver Sears Gallery, along with a strong U.K. presence with first-time galleries,
including John Martin Gallery out of London, and Quantum Contemporary Art. Pontone
Gallery, based out of London’s West End, will present works by self-taught Manchester
artist Chris Rivers, who has garnered significant attention from collectors and A-list
celebrities alike. A former professional rock drummer, Rivers creates vibrant and surreal
oil paintings and hand-gilded editions, drawing from his fascination with astronomy,
mythology, and celestial cartography. Other galleries showing at LA Art Show for the
first-time include Gefen Gallery (San Francisco), Steidel Contemporary (Lake Worth)
and Corridor Contemporary (Tel Aviv). LA Art Show 2026 will also continue its strong
South Korean representation with over 10 galleries participating.
LA Art Show will be followed by its East Coast counterpart, Art Palm Beach, returning
for its fourth edition from January 28 to February 1, 2026 at the Palm Beach County
Convention Center.
