Catalysta at Art on Paper NYC.

September 4 – 7, 2025 | Pier 36, Manhattan

We are excited to share that Catalysta will be participating in Art on Paper, the celebrated New York art fair that shines a spotlight on works created with paper as their primary medium. Taking place at Pier 36 from September 4–7, the fair brings together international galleries, artists, and collectors for a dynamic showcase of contemporary creativity.

For Catalysta, this marks an important moment to highlight our artists’ diverse practices and innovative approaches to paper as a material. From drawings to prints, editions, and mixed media, our booth will present works that explore storytelling, identity, and cultural heritage, while also engaging with new possibilities of the medium.

Our participation reflects Catalysta’s mission to champion artists whose work fosters dialogue across borders and disciplines. This presentation continues our commitment to creating bridges between local and international contexts, providing opportunities for both emerging and established voices.
