TERAVARNA Art Gallery is based out of Los Angeles, California. It is a contemporary art gallery focused on supporting painters, photographers, sculptors, and various other artists creating artworks in 2D and 3D forms from across the globe. While mainly operating as a digital gallery, it also ventures into selling artworks, physical exhibitions, and fairs like artBIAS, LA Art Show, and Superfine from time to time. At present the gallery has over 350 artists in its portfolio. Its mission is to bring contemporary art to the center stage, by supporting artists and making their art more accessible globally.^[1]

History[edit]

The gallery was established in 2020 as ART SHOW INTERNATIONAL GALLERY or ArtSIG by Dr. Niladri Sarker. Even during the tough times of the COVID-19 pandemic, the gallery continued helping artists digitally, by organizing online competitions^[2], solo exhibitions, and opportunities to market their work. It still continues to give out artist grants, sponsorships, and cash prizes to deserving artists with the sole intention of supporting and encouraging their art careers.

In 2022, the gallery decided to rename ArtSIG with something shorter and unique, that also resonates with its philosophy. Hence they decided to name it TERAVARNA, which is a combination of two words, TERA (ˈtɛrə) meaning a trillion, and VERNA (vɑːnə,ˈvəːnə) meaning color. Hence, the name TERAVARNA means ‘a trillion colors.’^[3]
