What materials are used for the Berkeley #54 print?
We use premium 4mm (0.15") acrylic for a sleek, vibrant finish. This archival material enhances color depth and provides a durable, modern look with straight-cut corners and white backing for optimal presentation.
Is the mounting hardware included with the acrylic print?
Yes, each Richard Diebenkorn print includes a complete hanging kit. This includes screws and hardware designed for the pre-drilled 8mm holes located 14mm from each corner, ensuring a secure and effortless installation.
How long will the colors last on an acrylic print?
Our museum-quality acrylic prints are designed for archival longevity. The UV-resistant properties of the 4mm acrylic protect the pigments from fading, ensuring your Berkeley #54 masterpiece remains vibrant for decades.
How is the artwork shipped to ensure it arrives safely?
RedKalion utilizes professional-grade, shock-resistant packaging. Each acrylic print is securely fastened within protective materials to prevent scratches or structural damage during transit, ensuring it arrives at your door in gallery-ready condition.
How do I clean and maintain my acrylic art?
To maintain the high-gloss finish of your print, use a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials to preserve the integrity of the 4mm acrylic surface and keep the colors crisp.
What is the historical significance of Diebenkorn’s Berkeley series?
The Berkeley series represents Diebenkorn's peak Abstract Expressionist phase. These works, including Berkeley #54, were inspired by the light and aerial topography of the California landscape, showcasing his transition toward the Bay Area Figurative Movement.
Why does the background appear white on transparent areas?
To ensure the most accurate color representation of Diebenkorn’s palette, we apply a white backing to any transparent sections of the acrylic. This ensures the colors remain saturated and the artwork maintains its intended visual impact.
