On July 8, 2026, Gagosian announced that Stanley Whitney has created a limited-edition print for RxART, a nonprofit that uses visual art to aid pediatric healing. The four-color screen print, produced by Two Palms in an edition of fifty, is signed and numbered by the artist and features one of Whitney's characteristic loosely gridded color abstractions. All proceeds from sales will support RxART's mission of pairing contemporary artists with pediatric hospitals to develop site-specific projects that humanize healthcare environments.

The Signal

The print offers collectors a rare opportunity to acquire a Whitney work at a fixed price while supporting a nonprofit that integrates contemporary art into healthcare design. The collaboration underscores the growing trend of artists engaging with social-impact initiatives, and for Whitney, whose abstract paintings command high auction prices, the limited edition provides a more accessible entry point to his practice. The 50-piece run ensures scarcity, likely driving demand among both existing collectors and new buyers drawn to the charitable cause.
