At Basta, we champion the voices of young creative individuals in New York City. Our mission is to serve as a dynamic platform where cutting-edge opinions intersect with bold artistic expressions. We foster a community for emerging artists across multiple disciplines, embrace unconventional perspectives, and strive to challenge traditional discourse on art. By reacting to multidisciplinary works of art, publishing daring critiques of cultural phenomena, and representing diverse young artists, we provide a platform to connect creatives across the city. 




The word Basta, means “enough" in Italian. While launching a magazine in one's 20s isn't groundbreaking, Basta aspires to be more than just another publication. It is an interdisciplinary collage, a testament to the vibrant array of artists, writers, and creatives that surround us.

Each issue is a canvas of ideas and diverse voices - reflecting the joy and excitement of creating together. It is from this fiber that our community pulses with life. 

Basta is a physical representation of this ethos and we hope you will join us in efforts to preserve this unique moment in time we all share 

More to come…
