Fresh Paint Contemporary Art Fair was launched in Tel Aviv in March 2008, quickly establishing itself as a major cultural event with 14,000 visitors in just four days. The fair’s second edition, Fresh Paint 2, took place from March 18–21, 2009, at the “Hatachana” site in Tel Aviv, a renovated historic train station located between Jaffa and the Neve Tzedek neighborhood. Fresh Paint’s mission is to provide a platform for emerging Israeli artists, showcasing their work alongside established galleries.
