TEFAF Maastricht 2026 has unveiled a selection of standout acquisitions, with six artworks drawing particular attention from collectors and critics. Among them are a rediscovered Baroque painting by Artemisia Gentileschi, a monumental contemporary sculpture by Kapwani Kiwanga, and a rare set of ancient Roman mosaics in pristine condition. These pieces, presented by leading international galleries, highlight the fair's ongoing role as a premier marketplace for top-tier art and antiquities.
The prominence of these works underscores key trends in the current art market, including the continued surge in interest for historical works by women artists and the robust demand for archaeologically significant objects. The diversity of the highlighted pieces, spanning from antiquity to the present day, reaffirms TEFAF's unique position as a cross-category fair where museum-quality items across all eras achieve record valuations and find new institutional homes.
