What is Create! Magazine?

Originally founded in 2013 as Fresh Paint Magazine, the publication rebranded to Create! Magazine in 2016 in order to showcase the incredible talent of emerging artists in the contemporary arts working across a variety of media. Since then, we’ve highlighted thousands of artists from across the globe, sharing not only what they create, but also the meaning, inspiration, and stories behind what they do. 

The artists selected by Danielle Krysa, known as The Jealous Curator, will have their work featured in our print and digital issue and will be promoted to our global community of 200,000+ artists, curators, collectors, art world professionals, and art lovers.

Our magazine has been featured by leading media outlets including Colossal, Apartment Therapy, and The Jealous Curator, among others. Over the years, we have partnered with global art fairs including Art Miami, Moniker, Affordable Art Fair, and Superfine, and collaborated with brands such as Minted.

Print issues are available in our online shop and at select independent bookstores worldwide.
