This weekend in Manhattan, amid the hustle and bustle of the city The Cool Kids, Strada World has opened a new exhibition while celebrating its one-year anniversary. Just behind the noisy Washington Square Park, the gallery is making its own noise.
Depend onFounded Paul Hill, Strada World is first and foremost a digital arts collective that prioritizes transparency, fair representation and equal opportunity for its emerging and established creative teams. Strada World has ended 30 members of the collective, either artists or collectors. The latest show by about in physical space.
Fresh out of Grinnell College, Hill started his own artistic career selling serigraphs to pay rent in New York. “I realize how much of a disadvantage it is for artists who sell their own art. The only options that are really available are through art dealers or galleries, and the spaces I find myself entering are not spaces designed or built for people like me, nor Not from someone with a similar background to me,” Hill said. “I thought, let’s design a space and a new path for artists to go further in the art world.”
Although based in New York, Strada World is not fixed Address, its first in- Brooklyn People Show 400 and another one last month in Los Angeles. At the entrance to its latest exhibition, Culture II, a sculpted head with painted faces by artist Sydnie Jimenez squinted solemnly across the room, adding a sense of lightheartedness and humor to the ambience. Elsewhere, a set of canvases by Timothy Blair depicting a person operating an electric chair in various parts of the home provides a window into accessibility issues and their representation in art.

“Our first show was an all-black exhibit, Celebrating the mobility of black artists and the black diaspora,” Hill said. “Now, for ‘Culture II,’ we have a joint exhibition of black and Asian artists whose work has become a landmark of the era, defining our future creativity.” Strada World by offering artists the opportunity to showcase their work IRL , educates its followers about differences in the art world and serves the needs of their communities by amplifying young artists to validate their identities. To support first-time collectors, Strada World has also launched a capsule collection of its artist prints and ceramic mugs, creating a more accessible price point for potential buyers.

Through his young gallery, Hill is working to remove the intimidation that often accompanies white-box art spaces, and an important part of his vision is to support manufacturers of all kinds. This week, Strada World puts on a live show for the first time, and Teezo Touchdown is welcome to make a set. “He totally identified with the theme of ‘Culture II,'” Hill said of the Texas-born singer. “As one of the young musicians [in the industry], he’s an artist who’s actively shaping our creative future, and he’s also collaborated with some well-known artists like Tyler the Creator — but he’s still succeeding in his own right.”
