All Night Satellites - Print

From our experience, collecting valuable art does not have to break the bank or require a trip to New York, London, or LA's hottest contemporary gallery. 1xRUN is working with leading established and emerging artists providing weekly limited edition, signed, authentic and exclusive print runs. These print releases, or RUNS, are open for one week only. Once it closes, the work is produced to the specifications and quantity sold in the RUN. We are excited to welcome back two of our favorite Detroit artists Malt and Tead as they have brought us their first collaborative print All Night Satellites . Along with the 37 x 37 inch original painting, we also have a selection of smaller originals available from both Malt and Tead. "Malt and I have known each other for years. I knew him for a few years before he wrote Malt when I was just getting into graff and what not. One day randomly, one of our friends told me my dude was Malt, I didn't believe it for a minute. I was blown away that Malt already knew I wrote. I was this little kid just trying to be down. I basically exiled myself from the rest of the world, ditched anyone who didn't paint. Blew off my girlfriend and just went in. Didn't rest and didn't sleep. I was seeking something I didn't even know. Just painting non-stop." - Tead Giclée (pronounced "zhee-clay") is a neologism for the process of making fine art prints from a digital source using ink-jet printing. The word "giclée" is derived from the French language word "le gicleur" meaning "nozzle", or more specifically "gicler" meaning "to squirt, spurt, or spray". It was coined in 1991 by Jack Duganne, a printmaker working in the field, to represent any inkjet-based digital print used as fine art. The intent of that name was to distinguish commonly known industrial "Iris proofs" from the type of fine art prints artists were producing on those same types of printers. The name was originally applied to fine art prints created on Iris printers in a process invented in the early 1990s but has since come to mean any high quality ink-jet print and is often used in galleries and print shops to denote such prints.
