I do not believe this is a screen print. Can anyone confirm where that information came from in the listing?

It’s not; they would say otherwise. Archival ink on cotton rag they said.

Their email makes it seem like it's screen printed? "Approximately 38 layers in the process of making this print. A rich archival pigment print on a heavyweight matte paper with deckled edges. A lot of small elements mixed in to all the blocks giving some fun sense of discovery." What layered print process are they using for these?

I was under the impression that the blocks was the OG, and these, for sale could be giclees...

That is a gif of them making the original block painting that the print is based on. They aren't doing that process for 350 prints...not for $450, at least. As far as I know, they have always called a screen print a screen print, or said something like 'screen print ink and archival pigment on paper'. Calling it an archival pigment print, to me, is an indication that they have made a print based on the original woodblock painting but they have not silk screened it. Their recent releases that were not screen prints have been referred to as archival pigment prints in that same way.

Got it, wasn't clear from skimming the email. I assumed the "38-layer print" was the whole edition. That gif almost sold me on it... but still a pretty decent image.

I agree it wasn't clear. I spent a bit determining whether it was actually screened or not. That was just my thought process in concluding that it was not.

^ Like you said earlier, I don’t believe they ever released a screen print without saying that it was. So I do not think this is an exemption. Especially at 38 screens at that price, haha.
