About the Print Series
In 1964 Drue Heinz made a gift to The Paris Review to enable the magazine to initiate a series of prints and posters by major contemporary artists, the purpose of which was to encourage works in the print medium while publicizing The Paris Review and providing financial support for the magazine. Largely through the efforts of Jane Wilson, a fellow artist and the director of the program, twenty-three artists—among them Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, Helen Frankenthaler, and Robert Motherwell—were persuaded to donate signed and limited editions of original work.
The tradition continues in the present day with the publication in recent years of prints by Louise Bourgeois, Ed Ruscha, and William Bailey. Each print is published in an edition of 60 to 200, most of them signed and numbered by the artist. All have been made especially and exclusively for The Paris Review. Many are still available for purchase. Proceeds go to The Paris Review Foundation, established in 2000 to support The Paris Review.
