ONLINE AND LIVE AUCTION - JAGUAR PARADE NYC 2022

Art’s most significant purpose is to be a vehicle for debates and awareness. It can be a very intimate dialogue between the creator and the viewer. Jaguar Parade has taken that idea to a global level this year, bringing the wildest art exhibit to two of the world’s concrete jungles: São Paulo and New York.

More than 30 talented national and international artists painted magnificent jaguar sculptures with original aesthetic proposals, innovative design techniques, and relevant messages about wildlife conservation.  

If you are an art collector and want to support this cause, now is the time: the online auction of the sculptures has begun. This is the perfect opportunity to pick your favorite jaguar, place the highest bid and buy an exclusive sculpture from the biggest Jaguar Parade edition so far. 

100% of the net proceeds will be donated to jaguar conservation projects led by por Panthera, WWF, WCS, The Lion's Share and Onçafari.
