The Worldwide High-quality Print Sellers Affiliation will rebrand to grow to be the Worldwide High-quality Prints and Drawings Affiliation (IFPDA) following a vote to increase membership to sellers working with drawings. The following IFPDA Print Honest (9 April 2026-12 April 2026) on the Park Avenue Armory in New York will mirror the shift.
“That is an historic second for the IFPDA,” David Tunick, the president of the organisation’s board, mentioned in an announcement. “In welcoming drawing sellers, we’re honouring the shared lineage and scholarly connection between prints and drawings. It’s an enlargement that each strengthens our neighborhood and aligns with how museums and collectors interact with works on paper immediately.”
The 77 exhibitors participating in subsequent yr’s IFPDA Print Honest embody Hauser & Wirth, David Zwirner, Tempo Prints, Two Palms, Galerie Maximillian, Josh Pazda Hiram Butler and Ruiz-Healy Artwork.
The enlargement comes because the artwork market stays in a hunch, although work priced beneath $50,000 accounts for about 85% of world artwork transactions, in line with the newest Artwork Market Report printed by Artwork Basel and UBS . In response to organisers, costs on the IFPDA Print Honest vary from three figures to seven figures, making it well-suited for Gen Z and millennial consumers.
“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 government director, mentioned in an announcement. “We utterly 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.”
