All You Need to Know About CADAF
Digital art has been around for a while now. That’s why CADAF co-founders Elena Zavelev & Andrea Steuer are pros in the field! Elena set out working in the digital art scene way back in 2017. She set out into the field after receiving her education in contemporary art and connoisseurship at Christie’s. After receiving her classical training, she chose to launch herself in a career in the blossoming digital art industry. This came about by her co-founding CADAF in New York. Artsper is a proud official sponsor of CADAF’s Digital Art Month Parisian edition. In collaboration with BeauxArts, CADAF present this festival at the forefront of innovative artistry.
What is CADAF?

CADAF is a platform that specializes in offering a flexible and transparent split commission and revenue share that works for all sides of the artistic realm. Since CADAF’s establishment, co-founders Elena Zavelev and Andrea Steuer set about creating a marketplace that just launched in May 2022. It is intended at becoming a sustainable network that prioritizes the needs of curators, artists and collectors alike. The marketplace exists as a place where curators have the power to build their visions, develop collections, and collaborate. Artists are able to participate in or curate shows as well as getting access to the top curator network. Furthermore, on a consumer level, collectors can explore the highest quality art in an energy-efficient way. Something that is very important to consider in the digital age. CADAF also prides itself on rewarding artists from early on in order to continue their development.
Thus, CADAF and Artsper have many values that align making them the perfect partner with which to collaborate!
CADAF’s support for the digital art community
CADAF also supports the digital art community by organizing several events every year that run on a global scale thanks to their digitalized nature. These events include the OG Art fair for fine digital art, art NFTs & “Artsy” collectibles. This is run as both a virtual as well as in-person event. CADAF prides itself on producing year-round educational programs and pedagogical workshops. These help engage and support its digital community of artists and art lovers. Whether they are beginners dipping their toes into the water of the digital art industry or well-established digital artists, CADAF remains a well-reputed industry specialist able to provide support.
Another event is their Digital Art Month. Having previously been centered around showcasing the city of New York, CADAF’s Digital Art Month now runs as a global, month long, augmented reality and video art festival. For the first time in June of 2022, CADAF comes to Paris. It has established a partnership with the BeauxArts in order to create the first edition of Digital Art Month Paris.
