“FOUR MARTINI LUNCH” – in the 1960’s New York

SUBJECT: Debuting as the first edition released at the Las Vegas Palm Casino Resort Shag Store, Four Martini Lunch reminds us all that a little liquid courage can go a long way or perhaps too far.

The American term “Three-Martini Lunch” influenced SHAG to create this very funny limited edition in 2022.

The “Three-Martini Lunch” was a pastime that was popular with Madison Ave advertising executives during the 1960s. It helped boost creativity at work, or so it was claimed. The expense of these luncheons was deducted as entertainment expenses from the taxes, fully despite efforts by former Presidents Kennedy and Carter to reduce the overall deduction by the pressure of the IRS.

An ode to the Mad Men era, this limited-edition print is sure to appeal to fans of the TV show and the era or anyone with a sense of humour.

We sincerely thank SHAG for providing this only-one Artist Proof from his personal archive to his 2nd gallery in Europe.“Four Martini Lunch” archival-quality serigraph is hand-signed and numbered by SHAG and includes the Certificate of Authenticity issued by the gallery.

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 atelier 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 5cm 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.

FRAMING INFORMATION: Custom made 4cm wide white lacquer wood frame with 2cm wide orange wood fillet and covered with 2mm non-reflective UltraVue® UV70 Museum-Glass or archival longevity.
