ASIA NOW – Paris Asian Art Fair

More than just an art fair, Asia NOW is both a curated platform with international galleries presenting artists from across Asia and its diaspora, and an ambitious public program featuring commissioned site-specific installations, performances, conversations, and artist workshops.

Each year, its program is redefined to feature highly anticipated artistic proposals aimed at professionals and discerning collectors, while continuing to address and contribute to global issues. By spotlighting emerging and established practices from Asia’s diverse art scenes, Asia NOW showcases the richness and variety of artistic creation in these territories and their diasporas.

Asia Now is a place of gathering, the only fair dedicated to exhibiting artists across Asia. It plays host to a  multipolar world in which the Global South is redefined and celebrated as a testament to connectivity and vitality. This approach goes beyond geography to consider questions of methodology, wherein Asia becomes a spirit to be harnessed, a lens through which critical, postcolonial narratives are examined, and a region that is thought through rather than reified. Driven by a keen sense of discovery, Asia Now brings to the forefront divergent cosmologies and aesthetic traditions where universes coexist, amplifying voices from the global South.

Since its inception, Asia NOW has showcased a selection of international galleries in the Asian art market, pursuing its annual mission to explore the region defined by Asia Society, which stretches from Japan to Iran, from China to Australia, across Central Asia to the Asia Pacific.
