Mini Print International of Cadaques 46th edition 2026 open call.
DEADLINE | 15 MARCH 2026
The Mini Print International of Cadaqués is a print competition open to all printmaking techniques and tendencies, in which artists from all over the world participate. Information about the show is sent out each year to artists, print workshops, schools, universities and specialized media all over the world.
The exhibition usually includes around 650 artists from some 50 countries of all the continents. The technical and formal quality of the works is very high. This has encouraged us to continue organizing the show year after year since 1981.
In each call, a qualified jury makes a selection of six works (12 for the first years). The award winning artists are invited to have a solo show the following summer in our Taller Galeria Fort in Cadaqués. Most of the winning artists attend the opening of their show and act as the jury of the Mini Print International of that year.
