Curators' Preview

This  year the VIP Preview for the IFPDA Print Fair is opening one hour  earlier exclusively for Museum Curators, Directors, and Trustees. Please join us for coffee at 11 AM and an opportunity for an unhurried private viewing of the fair.

We  will also be presenting the Richard Hamilton Acquisition Prize  (sponsored by Champion & Partners) and the 2023 IFPDA Foundation  Book Award.

Through the generosity of ChampionScott Partners, the   Richard Hamilton Acquisition Prize provides $10,000 for a Museum’s  acquisition of one or more prints from any period at the IFPDA Fine Art   Print Fair. In naming the prize, ChampionScott Partners has chosen to  honor the late Richard Hamilton, as a tribute to the artist’s profound  influence on their own appreciation of prints and to acknowledge his  impact on generations of printmakers.

The  IFPDA Foundation Book Award was founded in 2004 to highlight and  promote published books, articles, or catalogues on fine prints. This  annual award honors excellence in research, scholarship, and the  discussion of new ideas in the field of fine prints. The award provides  one outstanding recipient and publication with a prize of $3,000, and  represents another milestone for the organization. As a result, the  winner will receive acclaim from one of the most recognizable bodies in  the print world.
