Thanks for the info! Bit of a warning though: it looks like only the canvas floater frames are on sale, which might not be appropriate for a print. Canvas floaters are designed to mount to stretcher frames and generally don't accomodate glass or glazing, so you may have to jump through some hoops to use 'em for this.aldo wrote:For whoever snagged one, American Frame is having a 40% off sale on all floater frames starting today (if you were thinking of floating it). http://www.americanframe.com/Department ... woods.aspx
I would order one now but not convinced of anything until shipping notice. Luckily the sale lasts a week so you have a little time.

After reading bk boy's post- here is what I take: the invite to the pace prints show was letter pressed (not a release), the actual prints from pace show were embossed and then printed on- not letterpress.spagucci1 wrote:No not first letterpress. His prints at the pace show are letterpress. Plus the VIP invites for the Pace show were letterpress. I got my invite signed by Shep.
So that makes this his first letterpress release.
Somebody please correct this if I am wrong!

The Pace prints were letter press. Letter pressing helps give an embossing effect. As you will see in this video, there are several letter press plates that are shown.

Cool video! But metal plates are also used for lithography (true traditional/stone lithography, not offset lithography), engravings, and intaglio printmaking, among others. He was inking the plate for Arab Woman, but the final result didn't look particularly dimensional, which could mean traditional lithography. Is there anyone with the Pace prints who can check in?
The pace prints were screenprinted and embossed, not letterpressed.
http://www.paceprints.com/exhibition/2012-05-FaireyOn view will be a number of silkscreens done with collage and spraypaint, as well as handmade paper, embossment and relief prints, and large metal plates with screenprint.

I have one. Image is silk screened on the embossed paper. Pics really do not show much dimension but if you see the print in person, the embossed pattern on the paper brings so much depth and texture into the work.misterwhisper wrote:Cool video!

It might be the first widely released letterpress but I'm not sure I see what the significance of that is.
They've already said there will be more and this isn't some revolutionary new medium he's testing out.
No one next year will be saying, "Remember the day Shepard Fairey tried out letterpressing? That was the day everything changed"
