What paper quality is used for the Gene Davis print?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) natural white, museum-quality paper. This archival-grade, uncoated matte paper provides a sophisticated finish that resists aging and yellowing for decades.
What are the specifications of the black wooden frame?
The frame is crafted from responsibly sourced ash wood, measuring 20mm (0.79") in width and thickness. This provides a more substantial and premium aesthetic than standard 14mm frames.
Is the artwork ready to be displayed upon arrival?
Yes, each framed print includes a complete hanging kit. The artwork arrives fully assembled and ready to hang directly on your wall out of the box.
How is the print protected from damage?
We use high-quality, shatterproof plexiglass to protect the print from dust and impact while maintaining crystal-clear visibility of the artwork’s rhythmic detail.
Is this product environmentally sustainable?
RedKalion prioritizes sustainability by using FSC-certified wood and paper materials, ensuring your art collection supports responsible and ethical forestry practices.
What was Gene Davis's role in the Washington Color School?
Gene Davis was a leading figure who helped define the Washington Color School, focusing on the rhythmic power of vertical stripes to explore pure color relationships.
Why did Davis title his 1964 works with terms like "Beat"?
Davis was influenced by jazz and musical intervals. The stripes function like notes, creating a rhythmic "beat" through varying widths and tonal contrast across the canvas.
