"Giclee" is a digital printmaking technology with great advantages in beauty, quality and durability. The process can be used to print art that has been digitalized from the original, a transparency, photography or from original digital artwork. The digital files are worked using sophisticated graphics software to fine tune the images.They are then translated into a format usable by digital printers in preparation for the print files.
Image files are archives and are used on demand. Although prints can be made on papers, we print on canvas. A clear coating is applied to protect from fingerprints and water droplets. The coating does not improve the permanence of the image. Under circumstances similar to home and office conditions, tests have demonstrated that Giclees can last as long as 32-36 years before noticeable fading begins. It\222s important to note that all colors fade. Depending on the composition of the paints, many original watercolors will fade faster. The same goes for Cibachromes, which can fade in 29 years.
Dozens of museums have mounted exhibitions or purchased Giclees for their permanent collections. These include The Metropolitan Museum (New York), the Guggenheim (New York), the Museum of Fine Arts (Boston), the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (Boston), the Philadelphia Museum, the Kennedy Center for Performing Arts (DC), the Smithsonian Institution Libraries, the New York Public Library Print Collection among others.
