The eighth edition of the Felix Art Fair returned to the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in February 2026, featuring 57 galleries with a significant emphasis on Los Angeles-based talent. The fair maintained its signature intimate atmosphere, utilizing hotel rooms, cabanas, and the iconic David Hockney-designed pool area to showcase a diverse range of contemporary works. This year's iteration saw a high influx of new participants, with over 20 galleries making their debut at the event.
Felix continues to solidify its position as a tastemaking alternative to larger, more corporate art fairs during L.A. Art Week. By highlighting emerging artists like Maddy Inez—who carries the legacy of the Saar family—and international perspectives on Californian culture like those of Julien Lischka, the fair reinforces Los Angeles's status as a resilient and communal hub for the global art market.
