Into The Pixel

For those of you not familiar with the "Into The Pixel" exhibit at E3 this year:

It is an honor for me to inform you that your art has been selected for the Into The Pixel Exhibit at E3. You were chosen out of a field of over 100 submissions by jurors from both the art establishment and the video game world.

Your work will be printed by Richard Durado, a master printer. This is very exciting and recognition of your status as a fine artist recognized by the art establishment!

Richard Duardo is both an artist and a master printer who has been working in Los Angeles for over 25 years. Since graduating from UCLA in graphic design, he has been prolific in producing a large body of serigraphs. He has had museum shows in Tokyo and Gifu, Japan, New York and Los Angeles. His work was selected for a National Endowment for the Arts traveling exhibition where he was represented both as a printer and an artist. In 1988, Duardo received The California Arts Commission for The Artist of the Year Award. His work is represented in notable collections including The Los Angeles County Museum of Art. In 1980, Duardo established his fine art print studio, Hecho en Aztlan and its later offshoots, Aztlan Multiples, Multiples Fine Art, Future Perfect, Art & Commerce, and his current studio, Modern Multiples, Inc. To date he has published over 300 artists' work. The archives of these studios are collected by the University of California, Santa Barbara's Department of Chicano Studies.

We are looking at commissioning 10 large format museum quality prints. They will be signed and carry a certificate of authenticity as well as Mr. Duardo's chop.

Question we have before ordering: Would owning a piece of war art like this be interesting to anyone?

Here's a jpg of the artwork "Merchant Raider"

These will be available framed by special request only (BIG prints). They displayed the artwork in lit shadowboxes - really looked great. Cost will be between $750 and $1000 per print depends if we can get a price break.

Yeah its waay off price range. $1000 is almost a full month salery after taxes here.

hehe its the same price as a one way ticket from DK to USA. Image

A framed poster has a max value of $50 unless its handpainted by Picasso ;)

But it sure does look awesome.

That picture is Sweet its really quite amazing.

Maybe get it reprinted East, otherwords take the original and make replica prints,

that way you can sell them for much less, more folks can afford.

On a side note, Enigma is such a remarkable game , Ive seen screenshots ingame

that look that good :)

I went to EnigmaCon March 20, 2004... got to select three of the prints very near the beginning serial numbers... at $10 each - size 11 x 14 inch I think, now I have them as rotating slide show screen saver for pc's.. dont know if I am gonig to just store the originals or frame them or what.. but all three are very execellent wartime art - gives the room a wartime mood feeling when the screens are displaying the scenes, sort of backlit, very cool..

Now if only there were more than three pieces of this art, since I have five different pc's here... hint hint..

Hey East, weren't you considering selling those other prints after Enigmacon? I for one would love to have one...
