Why the Market for Artist Prints Continues to Flourish

“There are undoubtedly signs the print market is both booming and growing in importance,” said Jenny Gibbs, executive director of the IFPDA. “A great example of growth is Hauser & Wirth, which recently opened a Chelsea gallery devoted to editions.

Artsy’s recent Art Collector Insights 2023 report discovered that, amid a period of economic uncertainty, respondents placed a high importance on purchasing prints.

Leading print publisher Two Palms echoed Erdos’s sentiments. “Prints are an excellent way for new collectors to dip their toes into buying,” said Alexandra Slattery, sales director at the gallery. “You can find prints at any price point, from a few hundred dollars to a few hundred thousand.”
