New York, NY — December 23, 2025 — Asia Week New York, the highly anticipated convening event for Asian Art, will return for its 17th year from March 19–27, 2026. This annual celebration remains the preeminent gathering for Asian art worldwide. It will showcase 25 esteemed galleries, including three online exhibitions, 27 museums, and six major auction houses—Christie’s, Sotheby’s, Bonhams, Doyle, Heritage Auctions, and Freeman’s.
This year’s programming marks the first with new leadership at the helm: Alice Teng, as Asia Week New York’s new Executive Director, and Margi Gristina, Asia Week New York’s New Chairperson. Both women have extensive experience and expertise in the field of Asian Art.
“Asia Week New York is a spectacular opportunity to interact and engage with Asian Art at the very heart of the Asian Art Market: New York City,” said Margi Gristina, Asia Week New York’s New Chairperson. “While the organization has developed into offering year-round programming, it's still anchored by this annual week each spring, which allows collectors, museum curators, and enthusiasts to convene at this major cultural platform and view the best of Asian art across categories.”
"Nearly two decades ago, a group of dedicated Asian art specialists came together to create Asia Week New York. Over the years, it has grown into a vibrant home away from home for dealers, collectors, curators, and auction-goers alike," said Alice Teng, Asia Week New York’s New Executive Director. “I’m thrilled by the incredible works, both historical and contemporary, that will be on view, some for the first time this spring. It’s a rare opportunity to experience the depth and beauty of Asian art all at the same time.”
Asia Week New York will feature curated exhibitions from world-renowned dealers, live auctions, and expert-led panel discussions. The 2026 edition promises an inspiring array of treasures, from ancient artifacts to contemporary masterpieces. Two new Affiliate Members, Francesca Galloway and Lark Mason Associates, will share online exhibitions remotely.
