- Where to Buy Fine Art Prints
Keep in mind, though, that fine art prints are quite different than printed reproductions (which aren't always produced in collaboration with the artist), and that their values (and appreciation potentials) are, in part, influenced by the reputation of the publisher who produced them. To ensure you're getting an authenticated, high-quality work, buy from a reputable publisher, through a trusted source. To make it easy, we've put together a short-list of seven renowned printing presses and publishers that work closely with their artists. Read up on what they're known for, and click on their linked names to see more available works!

Since its founding in 1962, Crown Point Press has been committed to keeping the medium of intaglio alive, working with blue-chip artists all over the world, from Anish Kapoor and Laura Owens to Ed Ruscha and Chris Burden. To make an intaglio print, an artist first draws on a copper plate using a sharp tool and/or materials like soap, sugar, tar, or wax. The image is then etched into the copper plate using acid. Finally, a printer pushes ink by hand into the plate and wipes the surface clean. The press forces the paper into the plate to make the print. A visible plate edge shows that the image is embossed into the paper. Archives of etchings from Crown Point Press, which is located across the street from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, are at the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC, and the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.
Founded in 2000, Counter Editions works with leading contemporary artists and printers to commission and produce prints and multiples. Working in close collaboration with artists—like Tracey Emin, Cecily Brown, Elizabeth Peyton, and Gary Hume, to name a few—Counter Editions also co-publishes editions with the Tate galleries and collaborates with major institutions like the Serpentine Gallery and the Hayward Gallery. It’s editions have been acquired by collections like the Museum of Modern Art, Kunstmuseum Zurich, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the British Council.
The only publisher on this list affiliated with an academic institution, Graphicstudio is at the University of South Florida campus in Tampa, where both students and faculty benefit from interacting with visiting artists—artists like Alex Katz, Chuck Close, Judy Chicago, and Kiki Smith. Techniques include traditional hand-printing processes such as relief, etching, photogravure, lithography, and technically advanced sculpture fabrication methods. Since its founding in 1968 as a non-profit art-making facility, Graphicstudio has received popular and critical acclaim for its innovative approach to collaboration and technical advancements in both printmaking and sculpture fabrication. Graphicstudio editions have been acquired by leading museums including the Museum of Modern Art, the New York Public Library, and the Whitney Museum of Art. The National Gallery of Art in D.C. and the USF Contemporary Art Museum maintain complete archives of Graphicstudio editions.
Established in Copenhagen in 1979, Niels Borch Jenson Editions works with both emerging and established artists to produce print media projects through close collaboration. With the goal of bringing the essential character of the artist’s work into their print projects, the artist and the master printer mutually challenge each other, and occasionally generate innovative or unorthodox approaches to the medium. Most editions are created using classic intaglio techniques using copper printing plates, but since 1990, photogravure has become an area of special expertise for the printshop, as it is one of the most popular techniques among the artists they work work with. Neils Borch Jenson Editions also produce woodcuts, offset lithographs, and monotypes.

Having worked with over 300 leading artists over the last 55 years, Polígrafa takes pride in promoting Spanish artists abroad, and they regularly participate in art fairs around the world, including Art Basel, which they've shown at since the fair’s inception.
