LA’s largest and longest running art fair, LA Art Show, will be celebrating its 30th anniversary in February (2025) and its ever-expanding global reach will be on display with exhibitors from many countries incl. Turkey, Spain, Belgium, Japan, Canada, France, Taiwan, London, Italy, Switzerland and the Netherlands.“As the longest running art fair in LA, are very proud of the pioneering role we have played in the City’s emergence as a global epicenter of art and culture,” says producer & director Kassandra Voyagis.
The fair’s popular non-commercial platform “DIVERSEartLA,” will also be returning (Feb 19-23, 2025) with a compelling retrospective, highlighting diversity and inclusion. Honoring LA Art Show’s anniversary milestone, this celebratory and topical exhibition, which reflects the platform’s 8-year transformative journey is both a look back and a call to action.
Curated by Marisa Caichiolo, DIVERSEartLA was born out of a necessity to amplify marginalized perspectives and the 2025 retrospective serves as a mirror reflecting the evolution of the educational platform with each piece encouraging critical conversations around race, gender, and the complexities of modern existence. In our current times, it is also a sobering reminder that people must stay active in securing and sustaining their rights.
