An irrefutable offer. If you are a follower of SHAG, you already know that a good cocktail is one of the temptations that the artist or his characters never reject. This time the elegant young lady looks suspiciously at the mysterious friend(?), that offers you the gin and tonic in an evening enlivened by a samba record of music.
This intriguing serigraph “AN OFFER SHE CANNOT REFUSE” in night tones from 2014. The original painting was part of Shag’s solo exhibition ‘Thursday’s Girl’ at Jonathan Levine Gallery in NYC in 2013. Many of the images for this show were later recreated as prints and are essential pieces in Shag’s work. This serigraph edition was re-created for an art exhibition in San Francisco’s Bay Area in 2014, and only 50 released plus a small number of A/Ps.
The original was sold in New York at the Jonathan LeVine Gallery for $7,000 in 2013.

FRAMING INFORMATION:
RETRO-FRAME Custom made 3cm wide, matte black Italian wood frame, matted with 4cm wide pink color archival mat board and covered with museum glass for archival longevity.
DESCRIPTION:
SHAG’s limited editions introduced in Budapest are produced using the silk-screen (serigraph) printing method. Serigraphy for additional color depth, saturation, density, and texture are a perfect match to SHAG’s painting style.
He is collaborating with Kolibri Art Studio, Inc. in Los Angeles for decades for unparalleled quality at enormous sizes for always a small, limited edition of 200 serigraphs only. Anywhere from 10 to 25 colors (some colors are printed twice for optimum quality) with hand color-separation, required 2 months to print since it is very labor-intensive to complete these unique editions. His media choice is always the US-made, 100% rag 2 or 4-ply “Rising Museum Board” brand, acid-free, thick archival paper, only with 2” margins left outside the live area. For the finish, SHAG requires a very expensive UV matte clear coat application made for silk-screen printing for preserving the extra longevity of the serigraph print.
