Editions Department

Phillips defines the Editions category. Our curated sales of museum-quality Modern and Contemporary prints and multiples offer budding collectors and seasoned connoisseurs the opportunity to acquire highly sought after and important works by masters of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. We pride ourselves on educating a new generation's eye by introducing our clients to new artists and techniques, responding to collecting trends and presenting superb examples of rare and iconic artworks.

We are dedicated to elevating the status of Editions as an artistically significant, often experimental and endlessly fascinating collecting category. Live auctions are held globally throughout the year in our New York, London, and Hong Kong salerooms alongside dedicated online sales. We are committed to staging live auctions for Editions and were the first international auction house to hold curated Evening Sales of the best and rarest works of the season. Our sophisticated approach yields exceptional results, achieving the strongest performance against the estimate in the industry.

2024 saw the most Editions auctions ever held globally by Phillips. Fifteen sales showcased the depth of the print and multiples category, including the expansion of Editions sales to our Hong Kong saleroom. We met market demand for single artists sales in London, with an inaugural Damien Hirst auction alongside the continued success of our David Hockney and Pablo Picasso - Paper and Clay sales. In New York, Phillips had the honor of selling 50 works from the Estate of James Rosenquist, a collection that celebrated the evolution of the iconic pop artist’s printmaking over nearly 50 years. This expansion of the sale calendar resulted in a global sale total of over $34 million, with 90% of lots sold, and 246 world records set. We look forward to continuing to showcase prints in dynamic and innovative ways in the coming year.

Designed exclusively to showcase Modern and Contemporary Art, our state of the art galleries at our global headquarters enable clients to interact with Editions in the highest quality aesthetic experience the commercial art world has to offer. In 2024, Phillips welcomed more than 18,000 guests to our Editions pre-sale exhibitions worldwide, many of whom are discovering Phillips for the first time. As a result, an average of 43% of Editions buyers were brand new to Phillips every auction.

Phillips' dynamic digital marketing and communications campaigns ensure the greatest possible visibility for Editions auctions. Our engaging scholarly online essays, editorials, and video content are held as the industry benchmark for the presentation of editions. Artworks are further promoted with gallery tours, receptions and panel discussions involving prominent experts and artists.

Phillips' superior ability to orchestrate Editions sales and cultivate new, enthusiastic collectors is unrivaled in the field. If you are interested in receiving a valuation, selling your Editions with us or would like some advice on growing your collection, please be in touch.
