UBS is proud to again serve as presenting sponsor for Art San Diego 2024, continuing its support for cultural endeavors around the world and affirming its commitment to using contemporary art to bring together ideas, inspiration, and innovation. As the premier contemporary fine art fair in Southern California, Art San Diego returns to the San Diego Convention Center November 1-3, 2024 with exhibits showcasing works by prominent international, national, and local artists. Art San Diego, produced by Redwood Art Group, features immersive fine art experiences and exhibitions that showcase the thriving art and design landscape. Featured programs include two VIP receptions for collectors and art lovers, the LOCAL TALENT Program and the San Diego Selects Art Recognitions. Access to Art Philanthropic Program – When a House Becomes a Home Through the Access to Art program, launched in 2018, UBS and Art San Diego partner to provide select charities and the communities they serve with educational and marketing opportunities in art, design and business development. This year brings a returning collaboration among Monarch School, Humble Design San Diego, and local artists from ARTS DISTRICT Liberty Station. Attendees will enjoy a special collaborative installation from the non-profit partners, be able to purchase artwork created for the Access to Art program by the students, and learn more about how each team makes the San Diego community a better place to live. Created by students and families from Monarch School, working in collaboration with professional artists and designers from the Access to Art partners, the program this year interprets how a house becomes a home when it is filled with imaginative design and art that means something to its occupants – a concept familiar to all art collectors. The exhibit features juxtapositions of texture and design, symbolic shapes, and three-dimensional objects. All artwork is available to take home by making a suggested donation to the Monarch School Project, with proceeds going directly to this community of students impacted by homelessness. “San Diego Selects” Recognition Program Returns Returning to the art fair post pandemic, the San Diego Selects program welcomes three local arts administrators and advocates to walk the fair on its first evening and choose five pieces that will be awarded “Best in Show” for 2024. This year’s esteemed judging team includes Collette Murphy Stefanko, Arts Administrator for the City of Encinitas, Susana Peredo Swap, founder of Vanguard Culture, and Christina Gustin, Financial Advisor and arts advocate from UBS. The art market, valued at $65 billion worldwide, remains resilient in the US. The volume of transactions grew in 2023, increasing to 39.4 million sales, up 4% over 2022.
