About Giclee Printing:
The Definition : Giclee (zhee-klay) - The
French word "giclée" is a feminine noun that means a spray or a spurt of
liquid. The word may have been derived from the French verb "gicler"
meaning "to squirt".
The Term : The term "giclee print"
connotes an elevation in printmaking technology. Images are generated
from high resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality
inks onto various substrates including canvas, fine art, and photo-base
paper. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy than
other means of reproduction.
The Process : Giclee prints are created
typically using professional 8-Color to 12-Color ink-jet printers. Among
the manufacturers of these printers are vanguards such as Epson,
MacDermid Colorspan, & Hewlett-Packard. These modern technology printers
are capable of producing incredibly detailed prints for both the fine
art and photographic markets. Giclee prints are sometimes mistakenly
referred to as Iris prints, which are 4-Color ink-jet prints from a
printer pioneered in the late 1970s by Iris Graphics. The Advantages :
Giclee prints are advantageous to artists who do not find it feasible to
mass produce their work, but want to reproduce their art as needed, or
on-demand. Once an image is digitally archived, additional reproductions
can be made with minimal effort and reasonable cost. The prohibitive
up-front cost of mass production for an edition is eliminated. Archived
files will not deteriorate in quality as negatives and film inherently
do. Another tremendous advantage of giclee printing is that digital
images can be reproduced to almost any size and onto various media,
giving the artist the ability to customize prints for a specific client.
The Quality : The quality of the giclee
print rivals traditional silver-halide and gelatin printing processes
and is commonly found in museums, art galleries, and photographic
galleries.
The Market : Numerous examples of giclee
prints can be found in New York City at the Metropolitan Museum, the
Museum of Modern Art, and the Chelsea Galleries. Recent auctions of
giclee prints have fetched $10,800 for Annie Leibovitz, $9,600 for Chuck
Close, and $22,800 for Wolfgang Tillmans (April 23/24 2004, Photographs,
New York, Phillips de Pury & Company.)
