OUR MISSION
Our aim is to bring Contemporary Art into people’s everyday life.
The idea behind our Artist-run company is to make Contemporary Art accessible and affordable. We offer a carefully curated store with unique and original art prints by established and up-and-coming contemporary artists. Shopping our collection of art prints is a great way to start your own unique art collection.
​
We handpick each Artist for their unique style and approach to Art. All our Artists are active in their careers and have their works displayed in Museums and Galleries all around the world. With fair artist's commissions and sustainability as our guiding light, we plan to create a new platform for artists to earn from their creations.
​
Our company is based in two of the world's most creative cities: Berlin in Germany and Reykjavík in Iceland. In our collection, you will find a wide range of Icelandic and International Artists.

MEET OUR FOUNDER
Dagrún Aðalsteinsdóttir Artist and Curator started PETIT_ARTPRINTS to create an alternative both for Artists and for people interested in owning an Artwork.
She was interested in creating a platform that would offer alternative ways to shop and sell art. As a response to an Art World that is dominated by exclusivity and limited ways for people to own Art. But that exclusivity also limits opportunities for Artists to earn from their creations.
“The idea was to create a platform that could benefit Artists and people interested in Culture. This way Art could be distributed like a book or a record allowing more people to enjoy Art in their everyday life.”

HOW IT WORKS
Quality and ethics are at the heart of what we do. In our carefully curated online store, you will find unique contemporary art prints by established and up-and-coming contemporary artists.
Shop an amazing selection of premium, archival-grade art prints made to last a lifetime. Our prints are all Giclee printed on museum high-quality paper 240gsm with smooth and matt finish. The Giclee print produces stunning images with a color vibrancy that is protected for 80+ years. Our limited collection is printed on high-quality 290 gsm Hemp and Cotton Hahnemühle Fine Art Paper.
As a part of our focus to be sustainable we print on demand all our orders. All the prints sold on PETIT_ARTPRINTS are made to order, meaning we eliminate waste. But this doesn’t mean lengthy delivery times, over 80% of our orders are made and shipped within 48 hours.
We deliver globally and we ship with trusted couriers. All our orders come with shipping insurance included, so if an art print ever arrived damaged, we’d reprint and deliver it free of charge. And if you are not satisfied with the art print in any way, you can let us know within 14 days and we will fix it.
