South Hall - 1201 South Figueroa Street
Los Angeles, CA 90015

LA Art Show 2026 takes place from January 7 through January 11, reaffirming its position as the most comprehensive international contemporary art fair in the United States. Set in Los Angeles, a city shaped by layered histories and global exchange, the fair reflects the cultural energy that defines the region. Here, diversity is not a theme but a foundation, informing how art is presented, experienced, and understood. The event continues to welcome a growing community of collectors, artists, and institutions drawn to Los Angeles as a vital center for contemporary expression.

Spanning more than 180,000 square feet, the fair brings together over 90 galleries, museums, and nonprofit organizations from around the world. Visitors encounter a broad range of media, from painting and sculpture to photography, design, video, and performance. Alongside traditional booth presentations, many galleries curate ambitious projects that extend beyond commercial display, offering deeper engagement with artistic ideas and practices. All exhibited works are available for acquisition, underscoring the fair’s role as both a cultural platform and an active marketplace.

At the heart of the fair is the Modern + Contemporary section, the largest area of programming, which showcases the breadth of current artistic production. Galleries from Los Angeles, the Pacific Rim, and international art capitals present works that reflect both local perspectives and global conversations. Complementing this is DIVERSEartLA, a distinctive section dedicated to civic engagement and cross-cultural dialogue. By donating substantial exhibition space to museums and nonprofit organizations, the fair emphasizes accessibility and public connection, presenting projects that prioritize meaning over commerce.

Curated under the guidance of Marisa Caichiolo and an international team of curators, the fair’s Featured Exhibitions expand the experience beyond individual booths. These immersive presentations invite audiences to move through thoughtfully designed environments where art, performance, and installation converge. Together, they highlight works that resonate beyond the fair itself. LA Art Show 2026 ultimately reflects Los Angeles at its best: open, experimental, and rooted in the belief that art gains strength when it crosses boundaries and speaks to a shared future.
