About Kadist

KADIST is a non-profit contemporary art organisation that believes artists make an important contribution to a progressive society through their artwork, which often addresses key issues relevant to the present day. Dedicated to exhibiting the work of artists—from more than one hundred countries—represented in its collection, KADIST affirms contemporary art’s role within social discourse, and facilitates new connections across cultures.

Its local hubs in Paris and San Francisco organize exhibitions, physical and online programs, and host residencies. KADIST stays apprised of developments in contemporary art via a global advisor network, and develops collaborations internationally, including with leading museums, fostering vibrant conversations about contemporary art and society.

KADIST is operated in France by an endowment fund called “AKAT – KADIST” and in the United States by two 501c3 called “Artnow International, Inc” and “KADIST Collection Manager, Inc.”
