This week, artwork forgery and botched restorations ruled the news cycle, as the infamous Beast Jesus gets its own art centre and the plot thickens over the seized Cranach painting.

As museums and galleries across the world are coming together to raise awareness of the lack of gender equality in the art community, we wanted to find out more about the women in art behind the museums, galleries, and exhibitions.

We turn to one of the New York art scene’s great influencers – gallery director, artist, aesthetician, business woman, and a truly inspiring person, Angela Di Bello, to learn more about her experiences in the art industry.

Asia Week New York focuses on promoting Asian art and culture in New York City. Major auction houses that specialize in Asian art, world-renowned museums, and Asian cultural institutions in the greater New York Area come together to celebrate the contributions of Asian art and design to the wider art world. This annual celebration takes place mid-march at venues all over NYC. We at Agora strongly support Asian art and artists, and in honor of Asia Week, here are some of our fantastic contemporary artists from all over East Asia.

St. Patrick’s Day is many things: a cultural and religious celebration, the chance to wear your go-to green outfit, and a day when it is internationally acceptable and encouraged to drink copious amounts of alcohol. And while we appreciate each of these modes of celebration, St. Patrick’s Day is the opportunity for something more in the art world. It is a day to acknowledge Irish artists, to be inspired by the incredible Irish landscape (think, the Cliffs of Moher), or even a day to simply try out a green-based palette.

Agora Gallery is taking this day to celebrate all that is Irish and green and good by showcasing a few of our artists who have been influenced by these simple things.

New York was finally treated to some true Spring weather this week, just in time for our newest exhibition, From Here to There. The exhibition is aptly titled, as this past Thursday, March 10th, 17 different artists came together at the opening reception to share their stories and their art, whether traveling from the distant Upper West Side or the even further Belgium or Colombia. But they all had one thing in common – as artist Mark Hellweg put it, they all brought their work to “New York City: the middle of universe.”

Each work takes the viewer on a different journey, and we had the chance to speak with some of the artists about where their artwork has taken them.
