MvVO ART, creator of AD ART SHOW, announced that more than 120 artists from advertising, commercial design, and related fields have been selected for the 5th annual Art exhibit.

For the 2022 edition, AD ART SHOW is returning to Westfield World Trade Center in New York City — a shopping and dining destination, transit hub and an iconic NYC architectural landmark by Santiago Calatrava. The artworks include paintings, sculpture, photography, and mixed media works, displayed inside the Oculus on Westfield’s monumental, high-impact digital advertising screens from May 1 to May 31, 2022.

“We are very excited to partner again with the yearly MvVO ART/AD ART SHOW. This partnership enables us to display an extraordinary collection of Artwork created by some of the most talented artists in the world. The show offers an unexpected visual indulgence. We invite everyone to visit Westfield World Trade Center to experience this compelling art first-hand,” said Loren Miller, SVP US Media and Strategic Partnerships.

AD ART SHOW is a unique experience, bringing ART directly to people by transforming an advertising platform — monumental digital screens — into a public gallery space for an entire month. The artists of AD ART SHOW have a background in advertising/design or related fields. They are following in the footsteps of famous artists like Andy Warhol, Rene Magritte, and Keith Haring. Historically some artists have made the leap, but the barriers persist; and AD ART SHOW throws the doors open for these talented artists with direct connections to the Art world in a celebration of artistic discovery open to all art lovers.

The artists were chosen by the MvVO ART selection committee — a who’s who of contemporary art experts and globally recognized creative pioneers. MvVO ART is introducing the artists individually in daily Instagram posts. @mvvoart

“AD ART SHOW bridges the gap between the Art world and advertising by championing the artists working in advertising and celebrating their Art,” said Maria van Vlodrop, MvVO ART CEO and Founder, named a Top Ten Cultural Shaper by ADWEEK magazine in its annual Creative 100 List.

HAVAS New York — the North American flagship creative agency of global advertising and communications network Havas Group — will host an Ad Industry Opening Reception on May 3, when a jury of well-known art collectors will name the winners and award a Specialty Clio in Contemporary Art to the artist receiving top honors. The presentation will be live streamed at 7:00pm EST (Eastern Standard Time) on MvVO ART Instagram (www.instagram.com/mvvoart/). All the participating artists will receive Art world exposure and opportunities to get discovered.
