Swedish Printmakers Association, Stockholm

The Swedish Printmakers Association (Grafiska Sällskapet) brings under its umbrella almost 430 active printmakers from all over Sweden; their styles and techniques vary and encompass an array of means of expression. The association was founded in 1910 by a handful of artists with a firm intention, then as now, to further the interests of printmakers by arranging print exhibitions and distributing information about printmaking as an art form.

Pursuant to this agenda, today the association runs a gallery with a large collection of contemporary Swedish prints, which is regularly updated by its members. Each year, the new members are chosen by a jury carefully assessing the submitted works.

Right from the outset, the association has worked internationally, exhibiting in many countries, much as arranging foreign exhibitions at home. It functions as an information center and a meeting point for printmakers and those who like prints. The displayed works are available for sale and the staff are only keen to assist you with the choice.
