Teen Prodigy Andres Valencia Partners With Legendary Paris Print House
The 13-year-old painter is also set for a solo museum show in Museo Jumex.
Summary
- Partnering with Paris’s historic Mourlot Editions on a limited edition prints
- His first museum exhibition is planned for early 2027 at Museo Jumex in Mexico City
Thirteen-year-old San Diego painter Andres Valencia has partnered with Mourlot Editions, the storied Paris print house founded in 1852 that once produced lithographs for Picasso, Matisse, Chagall and Miró. Known as one of the most respected studios in the history of fine art printing, Mourlot rarely works with contemporary names, making this collaboration a serious marker for Valencia’s young career.
The release includes three prints, Woman, Samurai and Commander, each measuring 22 by 28 inches. The works are produced using Mourlot’s traditional techniques, carried on by generations of master printers. Editions are available in open unsigned copies at $250 USD and limited signed editions at $1,250 USD on Mourlot Editions’ website.
Valencia broke onto the scene at Art Miami in 2021, the youngest artist ever shown at the fair. His large, Cubist-inspired canvases quickly jumped from $10,000 USD to well over $100,000 USD. In the last three years, Phillips has sold five of his paintings at auction. Nearly 300,000 people follow him on Instagram. His collectors range from Eva Longoria, Sofia Vergara, Sergio Ramos and Karol G to major players in the art world like Ron Burkle, Jessica Goldman and Eugenio López Alonso.
He has given more than $1 million USD in works to charities including UNICEF and amfAR. Earlier this year his first book, Painting Without Rules, was published by DK Penguin Random House. His first museum exhibition is planned for early 2027 at Museo Jumex in Mexico City.
