David Zwirner and Platform announce a focus on prints and editions in January

Featuring Two Palms and other premier print publishers

January 5, 2022

David Zwirner and Platform are pleased to announce a focus on prints and editions in January 2022.

On January 12, David Zwirner will launch a parallel online presentation to accompany the exhibition Unrepeated: Unique Prints from Two Palms, opening on January 13 at the gallery’s 20th Street location. The exhibition and online presentation will showcase recent unique prints made at the visionary print studio Two Palms. This selection will include works by:

Marina Adams, Mel Bochner, Cecily Brown, Peter Doig, Carroll Dunham, Chris Ofili, Elizabeth Peyton, Dana Schutz, Stanley Whitney, and Terry Winters.

Two Palms has been at the vanguard of experimental printmaking processes since it was established in 1994 by David Lasry in downtown New York. With an array of specialized tools and equipment, such as its rare hydraulic press, the studio has championed the creation of monoprints and monotypes—which Lasry sees as “perhaps the most diverse and dynamic of all the print mediums.” The exhibition and online presentation are a fitting collaboration with Lasry, who has worked with numerous David Zwirner artists and others to conceive of new and surprising ways to realize their goals. The prints on view will illuminate a range of these processes, which have resulted in some of the most inventive applications of the medium today.

Also launching on January 12, Platform will be offering a selection of editioned prints in partnership with the publishers Brooke Alexander Editions (New York), Carolina Nitsch (New York), Crown Point Press (San Francisco), Harlan & Weaver (New York), Two Palms (New York), and Universal Limited Art Editions (New York). Over fifty prints from these premier publishers will be available for immediate purchase on the e-commerce site by artists including:

Tomma Abts, Marina Adams, Josef Albers, Darren Almond, Mamma Andersson, John Baldessari, Mel Bochner, Louise Bourgeois, Peter Doig, Carroll Dunham, Marcel Dzama, Nicole Eisenman, Tracey Emin, Helen Frankenthaler, Robert Gober, Mary Heilmann, Jacqueline Humphries, Jasper Johns, Jennie C. Jones, Donald Judd, Jeff Koons, Robert Longo, Sarah Lucas, Marilyn Minter, Chris Ofili, Raymond Pettibon, Elizabeth Peyton, Richard Prince, Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist, Ed Ruscha, Katia Santibañez, Thomas Schütte, Dana Schutz, James Siena, Kiki Smith, Richard Tuttle, Mary Weatherford, William Wegman, Stanley Whitney, and Lisa Yuskavage.

The price range for these prints will be $1,400 to $40,000.

This initiative follows the recent announcement of David Zwirner’s print publisher Utopia Editions, which launched in November 2021. To date, Utopia Editions has published prints with Marcel Dzama, Rosa Loy, and Neo Rauch.

In March, Utopia Editions will release a new print by Ebecho Muslimova. Muslimova had a solo exhibition at David Zwirner London in December 2021. The print will be available on platformart.com.
