The Fair
IMPRINT is a contemporary art fair dedicated to limited-edition prints. Bringing together artists and galleries working across print disciplines, the fair offers a focused environment for viewing and acquiring original editioned works.
Hosted at Tate Modern, IMPRINT positions printmaking within a museum context — reinforcing its material, historical, and market significance.
A Focused Collecting Environment
By concentrating exclusively on prints, IMPRINT offers depth and clarity. Every work presented is an original artwork produced in a declared edition, allowing collectors to engage with questions of rarity, material process, and long-term context.
This focus enables meaningful comparison across practices — from traditional intaglio and relief techniques to digital, hybrid, and three-dimensional works.
Editions, Value, and Context
Editioned works occupy a distinctive place within the art market. They balance accessibility with scarcity, offering collectors the opportunity to acquire original works while retaining a defined structure of rarity.
At IMPRINT, works are presented with transparent information on process, edition size, and authorship, supporting informed decision-making and sustained engagement with artists’ practices.

Contemporary Practice in Print
Printmaking continues to evolve. Artists today move fluidly between analogue and digital methods, often combining multiple processes within a single work.
IMPRINT reflects this diversity, presenting works that range from highly technical engraving and lithography to experimental, process-led and material-driven approaches. The fair provides a platform for both emerging and established practices, allowing collectors to discover new voices while engaging with recognised names.
Direct Access and Dialogue
The fair offers direct engagement with galleries and, where possible, artists. This proximity supports deeper understanding of how works are produced, how editions are structured, and how individual prints sit within a wider body of work.
Collecting print is often an entry point into broader collecting; it is also, increasingly, a considered focus in its own right.
A Continuing Platform
Building on the foundation of the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, IMPRINT continues its commitment to excellence in print while situating the fair within a new institutional and cultural context.
The intention remains consistent: to support artists working in editioned formats and to provide collectors with a trusted, transparent framework for acquiring printed works.
A Fair for Informed Collecting
IMPRINT creates a setting in which printed works can be viewed with attention and acquired with confidence.
By bringing together process, context, and market clarity, the fair supports both first-time buyers and established collectors in building collections grounded in knowledge as well as visual engagement.
