The Worldwide Wonderful Print Sellers Affiliation will rebrand to change into the Worldwide Wonderful Prints and Drawings Affiliation (IFPDA) following a vote to develop membership to sellers working with drawings. The following IFPDA Print Truthful (9 April 2026-12 April 2026) on the Park Avenue Armory in New York will replicate the shift.
“That is an historic second for the IFPDA,” David Tunick, the president of the organisation’s board, mentioned in a press release. “In welcoming drawing sellers, we’re honouring the shared lineage and scholarly connection between prints and drawings. It’s an growth that each strengthens our neighborhood and aligns with how museums and collectors interact with works on paper right this moment.”
The 77 exhibitors participating in subsequent 12 months’s IFPDA Print Truthful embrace Hauser & Wirth, David Zwirner, Tempo Prints, Two Palms, Galerie Maximillian, Josh Pazda Hiram Butler and Ruiz-Healy Artwork.
The growth comes because the artwork market stays in a hunch, although work priced below $50,000 accounts for about 85% of world artwork transactions, in accordance with the newest Artwork Market Report printed by Artwork Basel and UBS . Based on organisers, costs on the IFPDA Print Truthful vary from three figures to seven figures, making it well-suited for Gen Z and millennial patrons.
“The expansion of the marketplace for prints, editions and drawings is evident from the demand to take part on this honest,” Jenny Gibbs, the IFPDA’s govt director, mentioned in a press release. “We fully bought out of cubicles six months in the past, and we’ve added new extra-extra-large cubicles on the request of many returning exhibitors.”
