The LA Art Show, LA’s largest and longest-running fair, The LA Art Show, returns to the LA Convention Center for its 31st edition January 7 – 11. Led by director and producer Kassandra Voyagis, it will feature over 90 exhibitors from around the world.
This year’s edition features international highlights include Ireland’s first time participation with Dublin’s Oliver Sears Gallery and Palm Beach’s Provident Fine Art with a solo presentation of Sylvester Stallone’s abstract works.
Highlighting the intersection of music and contemporary art, this year’s fair will feature works by two notable British musicians: Paul Simonon of The Clash and Chris Rivers of Heaven’s Basement.
In another first, Art of Contemporary Africa is presenting works from Dr Esther Mahlangu, a contemporary artist whose 8 decades of art has made her a beloved cultural ambassador of the Ndebele nation.
Other notable exhibitions include the first public showing in over four decades of Karl A. Meyer’s 1980s woodcut prints at Switzerland’s LICHT FELD Gallery, and cinematic figurative works by Israeli artist Yigal Ozeri presented by Corridor Contemporary. A strong Korean presence continues with J&J Art’s “Elegant Freedom” by Jinny Suh, whose Hanji-based works reinterpret Korean tradition through a contemporary lens.
The fair will debut its new Latin American Pavilion curated by Marisa Caichiolo-who was recently selected to co-curate Chile’s pavilion at the 2026 Venice Biennale. Centered on themes of memory, migration and identity, the pavilion explores representation, provenance and the evolving trajectory of Latin American art. The Pavillion is a timely reminder of the challenges posed by immigration issues for Latin American communities and their artists.
The fair’s signature non-commercial platform, DIVERSEartLA curated by Marisa Caichiolo returns with the theme The Biennials, Art Institutions and Museums in the Contemporary Art Ecosystem exploring the evolution of contemporary art through global biennials and museums, and how the two complement and challenge one another. The platform highlights their shared roles in artistic innovation, public engagement, and cultural dialogue.
The American Heart Association is again the charity beneficiary, receiving 15% of proceeds from every ticket sold for their Life is Why ™ campaign.
