In this 31st edition of the largest and longest-running independent art fair in Los Angeles, producer and director Kassandra Voyagis showcases the growing international scope of the fair, including over 10 exhibitors from South Korea; new participants Oliver Sears Gallery, from Dublin, Ireland; and Corridor Contemporary, from Tel Aviv, Israel, as well as the debut of an invitation-only Latin American Pavilion, curated by Marisa Caichiolo, who has been selected to co-curate Chile’s pavilion at the 2026 Venice Biennale. The Latin American Pavilion’s message of inclusion is especially poignant given the struggles facing immigrants from Latin America today.

Other highlights include a solo show of Sylvester Stallone’s rarely exhibited abstract paintings, from Palm Beach, Florida’s Provident Fine Arts, and the LA Art Show’s popular non-commercial platform DIVERSEartLA, also curated by Caichiolo, which explores how biennials and museums are platforms for innovation, dialogue, and engagement. Another exhibit that is garnering buzz is from London’s Pontone Gallery, which presents the self-taught artist and former professional rock drummer Chris Rivers’ surreal oil paintings, which reference astronomy and mythology.
