Magnum Photos has announced its latest Square Print Sale, titled 'Odyssey,' featuring works from more than 100 photographers. The sale, which runs from March 23 to March 29, 2026, offers museum-quality 6x6 prints, signed or estate-stamped, starting at $110. This biannual initiative, ongoing since 2014, draws from the cooperative's extensive archives. The 'Odyssey' theme explores journeys across memory, history, and culture, with images spanning decades and global perspectives. Notable participating photographers include Eve Arnold, Steve McCurry, Daidō Moriyama, Martin Parr, Mark Power, Karen Knorr, Juno Calypso, and Larry Towell, among others. Michael Sargeant, Magnum's global digital director, described the sale as reflecting photography as a sustained act of looking and long-term engagement with people and places. The event is organized in partnership with London's Photographers' Gallery, with proceeds supporting the gallery's public programs. Shoair Mavlian, the gallery's director, emphasized the sale's role in making exceptional photography accessible while funding charitable work. The sale underscores Magnum's nearly 80-year commitment to independent photographic practice and aims to render photography more universal.
