Artists who have participated in the Limited Edition program include Mark Bradford, Louise Bourgeois, Jenny Holzer, Anish Kapoor, Elizabeth Peyton, Christian Marclay, Julie Mehretu, Ed Ruscha, Josh Smith, and Rudy Stingel.

Between one and two Limited Editions are produced annually. The Museum also unveils an exclusive Edition at the New Museum’s Spring Gala each year, which is available only to Gala guests.
