Every spring, New York City becomes the beating heart of the international art world — and for nearly fifty years, Artexpo New York has been one of its most vibrant stages. From April 9–12, 2026, the fair returns to Manhattan’s iconic Pier 36, bringing together artists, collectors, curators, and galleries from across the globe.
This year, AGI Fine Art returns to Artexpo with a curated selection of contemporary works that reflect the gallery’s core mission: connecting artists with meaningful opportunities for visibility, growth, and global engagement.
Founded in 1978, Artexpo has grown into one of the largest and most influential art fairs in the United States. Its exhibitions celebrate diversity — of media, of voices, of aesthetic traditions. Painting, photography, sculpture, printmaking, and mixed media converge in an energetic, immersive experience that attracts thousands of visitors each year.
With its mix of established names and emerging talent, Artexpo remains a place where artistic careers can ignite, evolve, or expand. It is this dynamic environment that makes the fair a natural home for AGI Fine Art’s artists.
The 2025 edition of Artexpo marked an important chapter in AGI Fine Art’s journey.
We dedicated a full solo booth to Bharat Dalal, whose visionary practice bridges East and West, tradition and experimentation. His presence — represented on-site by his brother — drew significant attention from critics, collectors, and the public, becoming one of the most impactful moments in AGI’s recent exhibition history.
Alongside Dalal’s installation, AGI presented a curated group of international artists whose voices spanned continents and artistic disciplines. Creators such as Ai-Wen Wu Kratz, Angie Kiehne, Asia Bell, Attila Mata, Aya Iwakami, Britt-Marie Tidemann, Chrissy Barber, Danielle Mano-Bella, Dina Freeman, Donna Masi, Dr. Harpal Sodhi, Eish Verma, EJ Lee, Erika’s Art, Evens Saint Clair, and others contributed to a vibrant and diverse presentation.
Their work — ranging from abstract expressionism to figurative painting, from photography to sculpture — embodied the spirit of Artexpo: a global platform where different artistic languages coexist, challenge each other, and evolve.
As AGI Fine Art prepares for the 2026 edition, the guiding principle remains the same:
to offer artists a professional, supportive, and internationally connected environment in which their work can flourish.
The selection for this year’s presentation builds on the successes of 2025 while opening the door to new explorations, new dialogues, and new artistic encounters. Each participating artist is chosen with careful attention to technique, narrative strength, and the ability to resonate with an engaged, global audience.
Exhibiting with AGI means joining a community — one committed to both artistic integrity and professional development. With more than 40 years of experience, AGI Fine Art offers:
Whether an artist is based in the United States or abroad, Artexpo provides a powerful platform — and AGI ensures that each artist makes the most of it.
