Original Fine Art Prints. Hand-Pulled in New York
W Editions collaborates with emerging and early-career artists to publish limited-edition prints using hand-printed techniques like woodblock, silkscreen, lithography, or etching.
How an Edition Gets Made
Editioning always starts with the artist. An artist is selected and invited to collaborate on an edition. After studio visits and multiple stages of experimentation and planning, the work on a final edition begins either at the press or with supplies brought to the artist’s studio.
A matrix or series of matrices are made over the course of anywhere from a few weeks to a few months and in the end, a BAT is born.
Step 01
Artist Collaboration
We work one-on-one with emerging artists to develop each edition — sometimes introducing them to a new medium, sometimes going deep on one they already love. A print can be silkscreen, lithography, etching, woodblock, or any combination of the processes.
Step 02
Hand-Printed in New York City
Every layer in a print is pulled by hand. In addition to the traditional methods of printmaking, we keep up with the rapid changes in contemporary art and incorporate photographic techniques and new print technologies.
Step 03
Signed & Published
Every print is numbered, signed, and fully documented. Then the plate, screen, or block is cancelled — destroyed, archived, never used again.
What you collect is the only version that will ever exist.
Step 04
You collect.
Now it’s your turn in the process!
You get to own a little piece of fine art that is both affordable and directly supports artists at a critical growth point in their careers.
