ABOUT THE INSTIGATOR

THE INSTIGATOR

is a unique, critical, Paris-based online magazine, published by ZOLTAN+MEDIA.

The magazine is destined for people who love to be well-informed and critical thinkers.

THE INSTIGATOR is a guide through contemporary art and culture.

Our storytelling is a highly visual, emotional journey, challenging the minds of our readers. Throughout 12 columns of the magazine, we give visibility to new generation artists in France, and internationally from the worlds of contemporary art and 21st-century culture.

Online, we are constantly publishing articles, reviews, and current news items. We are not chasing time. Our subjects are timeless.

THE INSTIGATOR Nº1 DIGITAL

THE INSTIGATOR Nº1 PRINT

It has been an incredible journey to build the magazine and bring it from London to Paris.

We will soon be launching a digital and a printed edition.
