Paradigm Gallery + Studio

Founded in 2010 by curators Jason Chen and Sara McCorriston, Paradigm Gallery + Studio has become a cornerstone of Philadelphia's vibrant art scene, showcasing process-intensive contemporary works by emerging and mid-career artists from across the globe.

Renowned for its equitable vision and dynamic programming—like recent shows by Drew Leshko and Nazeer Sabree—Paradigm stands out for its curatorial boldness and commitment to a sustainable arts economy. Art enthusiasts will find it an unmissable hub, pulsing with innovation amid Philadelphia's historic streets.
