Shag “SHADOW WORLD” • Framed size

FRAMING INFORMATION: Custom-made 4cm wide, white Italian lacquered wood frame, 6cm wide, embedded in a 100% acid-free blaeck passpartou. Covered fwith 2mm artist-glass for longevity.

THE PROCESS OF CREATION: 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 which is made for silk-screen printing only, for preserving the extra longevity of the serigraph print.
