ART UP NATION
CELEBRATING
ISRAELI ART
Welcome to Art Up Nation, an exclusive exhibition highlighting the vibrant and diverse talents of Israeli artists. Set in the heart of New York City from September 19-22, 2024, this event provides a unique platform for artists from Israel to showcase their work to an international audience.
OUR VISION
Art Up Nation was created by a group of volunteers with a shared vision to support and promote Israeli artists. We aim to provide talented artists with the opportunity to exhibit their work on an international stage, fostering cultural exchange and appreciation. By introducing their unique pieces to a broader audience, we hope to empower these artists and highlight the richness of contemporary Israeli art.

WHY WE CREATED
ART UP NATION
The creation of Art Up Nation stems from a desire to bridge the gap between emerging Israeli artists and the international art community. We recognized the need for a platform that not only showcases their talent but also provides the financial and professional support necessary for their artistic growth. This exhibition is a testament to our commitment to fostering creativity, cultural dialogue, and artistic excellence.
