RISING PRINT Open Call Winners

 

In 2025, we hosted an open call inviting printmakers from around the world to submit works made with a 3D-printed printing press, all in the name of sculptural printmaking. In collaboration with Haus des Papiers, a museum dedicated to contemporary paper art in central Berlin, and with the support of a brilliant jury, we selected 35 small prints from 13 countries. The exhibition is on view at Haus des Papiers until June 2026. Here are some photos from the show, along with all selected artists. ✨
