The LA Art Show is delighted to welcome back Citi as a sponsor this year. We’re thrilled that Citi has partnered with us to create a series of LA Art Show Gallerist Talks, to be presented live and broadcast globally during the show weekend, July 29th - August 1st. Presented by Citi, this state-of-the-art program will provide viewers with engaging in-depth looks at select exhibiting galleries through an immersive 3D virtual gallery experience, which can be found here.
Citi proposed the creation of this innovative platform last April, in an effort to include galleries from other parts of the world who might be limited in their ability to travel because of the pandemic. Committed to helping small businesses around the world, Citi hoped to show artwork by international artists in a new interactive format made accessible to potential collectors and audiences everywhere.
During the show weekend, Citi will host LIVE conversations about the outstanding artworks in the virtual exhibitions. Conversations will be livestreamed from Citi’s gallery space on the show floor, which will be curated with pieces from participating galleries. These Talks, including Q&As with the gallerists, will be broadcast globally from our 24-hour online channel on the LA Art Show website.
We invite you to join us throughout the weekend - in person at the LA ART SHOW, or virtually – to experience this exciting program. Please see the full event schedule below.
