About
The Founders of the QSPA Ole Larsen Kjell Nupen HM Queen Sonja and Ornulf Opdahl
The Queen Sonja Print Award is the world’s leading award for graphic art, and a means to celebrate the art of printmaking, by honoring artists and supporting great talent. It is The Queen’s sincere wish that the award will support and inspire ambitious artists to establish themselves on the international art scene.
Three awards - the Queen Sonja Print Award, the QSPA Inspirational Award and the QSPA Lifetime Achievement Award - are presented every other year by the HM Queen Sonja Art Foundation, which was established in 2011 to generate interest in and promote the development of graphic art. The awards celebrate the excellence of artists at various stages in their career.
The Queen Sonja Print Award also contributes to making graphic art more available to the public. The opening of the QSPA exhibition space in 2021 was an important step towards raising general interest in graphic art. Our ambition is to create a meeting place where people can enjoy unique, premium quality prints.
