LA Art Show 2026 to Host Sylvester Stallone Abstract Canvas Paintings

The LA Art Show is almost ready to start hanging the pieces of its 31st installment.

The longest-running independent art fair in the city is scheduled to take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center’s West Hall on Jan. 7-11, 2026, under the direction of Kassandra Voyagis. The team confirmed some of the galleries and artists set to exhibit at the event, and included on the roster is Sylvester Stallone.

The big screen icon’s art will be featured thanks to Palm Beach’s Provident Fine Art, which is poised to make its LA Art Show debut. The gallery will mount with a solo exhibition featuring Stallone’s abstract canvas paintings. Exclusively repped by Provident Fine Art, the exhibition marks his first major showcase in years with the majority of the works available for purchase. His paintings have previously been displayed in exhibitions at museums in St. Petersburg, Russia and Nice, France.

LA Art Show also confirmed details of its more than 100 exhibitors on board, among them LICHT FELD Gallery (Switzerland), Rebecca Hossack Art Gallery (U.K.), Coral Contemporary Gallery (Miami), K+Y Contemporary Art (Paris), Arcadia Contemporary (New York), Fabrik Projects (Los Angeles), Rehs Galleries (New York), Oliver Sears Gallery (Ireland), John Martin Gallery (London), Quantum Contemporary Art (London) and Pontone Gallery (London).

First time gallery participants include Gefen Gallery (San Francisco), Steidel Contemporary (Lake Worth) and Corridor Contemporary (Tel Aviv). The 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,” per the event.

“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 said in a statement. “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.”

Tickets are now available with the American Heart Association serving as the charity beneficiary, receiving 15 percent of proceeds from every ticket sold for the organization’s Life is Why campaign.
