Just sick that I'm going to be queing outside the Chelsea Flower Show at 3pm tomorrow keeping Mrs N happy. Really loved C215 work at the Bristol show recently and would have loved this print.

IMO you should have gone for best quality from the start
why settle for second best ??
Great image though, cant wait !!

C215 🇫🇷 Christian Guémy • Paris Street Art • Stencil Artr, by Opus Underground on May 21, 2008 12:25:29 GMT 1, As explained the best quality would be a Giclee as it would be the closest match to the original with detail and colour. A screenprint wont be as sharp due to the limited number of dots per inch you can have on a screen but it will have a screenprinted quality of it's own!

C215 🇫🇷 Christian Guémy • Paris Street Art • Stencil Artr, by Jef Aerosol on May 21, 2008 14:27:02 GMT 1, I always wonder why people prefer screenprints to lithos or giclee etc...
A print is NOT an original ! So, the target is to get as close as possible to the original piece.
The big problem with spraypaint and stencils is that the "spray" effect is hard to reproduce.
Sometimes, with screenprints, the result can be closer to the image we use BEFORE cutting and painting the stencil than to the resulting painting itself (dunno if I'm very clear here ! got me ?), and it doesn't bring much !
I tend to think that originals are better especially since the stencil method allows reproduction in itself. I did some screenprints and I'm happy with them, but I'm wondering whether it wouldn't be simpler to hand stencil the image 50 or 100 times, so that the spray effect is kept rather than reproducing it with either printing method...
My next "print" will be hand sprayed.
Obviously, handsprayed multiples can't be editions of 500 ! (or it might mean re-cutting the stencil)
On the other hand, a nice screenprint can really be lovely...
For instance, I'm extremely happy with the "sitting kid" print we did with Blind Angle.
I directly sprayed on the transparent acetate so that it really had that sprayed effect (and I handsprayed the red arrow so it was half print- half original)
In the case of Chris's piece, I personnally think that it would be a shame to get rid of all the intricacy and rich details of the background...
That nice painting deserves faithful reproduction and i would go for a giclee.
I think that believing that screenprint is more "noble" than litho or giclee is a mistake, unless the screenprint is thought and worked as such and becomes an actual tool in the hands of the artist himself, which is not the case for this piece of Chris, i think.

C215 🇫🇷 Christian Guémy • Paris Street Art • Stencil Artr, by Karl Read on May 21, 2008 14:54:04 GMT 1, I think most people just dont want a giclee based on the fact they dont want a signed computer print out!
As far as lithos go, they can look a bit budget compared to a silkscreen! Im certain the print could be screenprinted and still get the desired effect at a good printers.

C215 🇫🇷 Christian Guémy • Paris Street Art • Stencil Artr, by seidbereit on May 22, 2008 15:15:06 GMT 1, I'd be really interested to see how that piece comes out "just" as a screenprint. Must say I'm a little baffled that you were able to price it without knowing how it would be produced but that's beside the point.
Question: why not do the background as a giclee with the image of the girl then screenprinted on top? (or would this be double the cost to produce?)

Agree that giclee background with screen print on top would be the perfect combo for this piece.
