Munchies Art Club Rebrands as Catapult Contemporary, Shifts to Web-First Model

Munchies Art Club, an independent art platform founded by Dominique and Ernst, has rebranded as Catapult Contemporary. The new name reflects a strategic shift from an Instagram-centric presence to a web-first, text-driven, and archive-focused model. The platform will continue to operate on social media channels including Instagram, Bluesky, YouTube, and Substack, but the primary emphasis is now on building a long-term, searchable archive of exhibition reviews, artist features, interviews, and independent art projects. Submissions are open for editorial consideration, and the platform is also offering a limited number of gallery partnerships for sustained editorial visibility. The rebranding acknowledges that most readers now discover content through search rather than social feeds. The editorial team remains independent, with special thanks to contributors David Rosado (DiFranco), Anna D., and Katharina Hoffmann.
