During the 20th century, many of the world's greatest painters turned to printmaking as a means of creative expression. Here, as in their work on canvas, they lead an aesthetic revolution that changed the course of art history. Picasso's restless innovation saw him create more than 2,400 original prints across eight decades. Miró’s devotion to technique and process resulted in a similarly grand output. Dalí produced around 1,700 individual editions, while Matisse executed 825 sinuous images. Each of these artists poured the very best of their work into their prints, seeking effects that would not have been possible in any other medium. Many of these prints are now held in the collections of major international museums, taking their place alongside the greatest works of 20th century art.
At Spring this September, Hidden Gallery will be be offering a fabulous selection of these original artworks for sale. We hope you can join us to see for yourself the extraordinary legacy left in print by some of the world's greatest artworks.
