Paper has always held a special place in the art world. A surface for ideas, a space for experimentation, and a medium in its own right, it offers artists endless possibilities for expression. From delicate drawings and intricate prints to bold collages and contemporary experiments, paper continues to challenge boundaries and inspire new ways of seeing.🌟
At Art on Paper Amsterdam, we celebrate the versatility, beauty and enduring relevance of paper as an artistic medium.
Looking back at the 2026 edition of Art on Paper Amsterdam with Coppejans Gallery (@coppejansgallery).
We are excited to be welcoming back past participants of Art on Paper Amsterdam for our 2027 edition, while also welcoming an exciting new group of exhibitors. From familiar favourites to fresh voices, our upcoming edition promises a wonderful mix of perspectives, discoveries, and inspiring works on paper.
Roof A Gallery (@roof_a_gallery ) showcasing the work of Charlotte Schleiffert (@charlotteschleiffert) at Art on Paper Amsterdam 2026.
Charlotte Schleiffert’s life-sized drawings and paintings combine imagination with themes of power and oppression. Strong female figures are at the heart of her work, while her compositions also reflect social and political developments in contemporary society. Her work invites viewers to engage with these themes from multiple perspectives.
Looking back at last year’s edition of Art on Paper Amsterdam, where Settantotto Gallery (@settantotto_art_gallery) put the work of contemporary artist Leen van Tichelen (@vantichelenleen) in the spotlight.

Ninet Kaijser’s (@ninet_drawings ings) coloured pencil drawings showcase the remarkable precision and expressive potential of the medium. Through carefully layered colours and fine details, the works create a strong sense of depth and texture. The drawings invite viewers to look closely and appreciate the craftsmanship behind each composition.

Let us have a moment to reflect on Art on paper 2026 where Livingstone gallery (@livingstone_gallery llery) presented the work of Taiwan-based sculptor Long-Bin Chen.
At Art On Paper Amsterdam we strive to maintain an international perspective by ensuring that approximately 40% of the participating galleries and artists come from outside the Netherlands. While we are committed to showcasing the strength and diversity of the Dutch art scene, we believe it is equally important to present outstanding paper artworks from around the world.
Only six months to go until Art On Paper Amsterdam 2027 returns. Until then, we invite you to look back with us at some of the memorable moments from the 2026 edition.
