Oxford International Art Fair
Since 2010, Oxford International Art Fair displays every year in Fall a great variety of contemporary artworks. Visitors can admire and purchase paintings, photographs, sculptures, jewels, art installations, and much more. The exhibitors truly come from all over the world. Indeed, for the 2020 edition, 26 countries are represented. As both established artists and arising names are showcased, the price range is wide enough to suit all kinds of budget. Many of them are on hand to meet the people, talk about their art and answer the questions. Additionally, alongside the trade show itself, visitors can enjoy live Jazz music, live painting and other exciting performances. Finally, the show is organised by the Global Art Agency, as a lot of art events, like the Tokyo Art Fair, the Amsterdam Art Fair and the Shanghai Art Fair.

Who is the typical attendee of Oxford International Art Fair?
We have local visitors from Oxfordshire and across the UK, art collectors from the Global Art Agency database, press, gallerists and the exhibitor’s visitors that are worldwide.
What strategy – physical as digital – will you adopt in medium to long term?
We have always had an option for artists to exhibit remotely with our Digital Art Showcase on a plasma screen. We are also currently working on a few other options for artists to ship their work and the Global Art Agency install the work for them, visitors will be able to contact the artist directly and exhibitors can hire a representative. Watch this space!
What are two other art fairs you would suggest?
We would highly recommend TEFAF New York and COLLECT in London.
