Exhibitors include:

• Scholten Japanese Art
• Tandem Press

And many more.

Special events include Jeff Koons and Christophe Cherix, The Robert Lehman Foundation Chief Curator of Drawings and Prints at The Museum of Modern Art, conducting a public panel about the nature of prints and multiples, what constitutes an original in the 21st century, and the role of printmaking in the artist's body of work. Phil Sanders, master printer and author of the forthcoming publication, Prints and Their Makers; The Collaborative Process leads a conversation with artist James Nares and Durham Press master printer Jean-Paul Russell about innovative collaborations and the importance of the artist/printer relationship.   

Swoon (Caledonia Curry) has created a site-specific installation for the IFPDA Fine Art Print Fair. The project was planned in conversation with Nadine M. Orenstein, Drue Heinz Curator in Charge of The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Department of Drawings and Prints, as a way to engage visitors at the IFPDA Fine Art Print Fair with the exhibition The Renaissance of Etching opening at The Metropolitan Museum of Art concurrent with the fair.
