Vandalart is a UK based Online Art Gallery show casing collectable Urban Contemporay works by the Renagade to Humdrum Artist Rourke Van Dal. An artist out on a limb, what is considered the norm is out of the window, a risk taker, he explores and invents every technique known to man, an true Artrepeneur. A player in the evolvement of the movement known a Urban Art, which rose from the Streets, an art which began life as an ephemeral art form disappearing as fast as it appeared. It grew on a worldwide scale, with major Auction Houses Cottoning on to its potential. Urban Art completing its transition from underground subculture to mainstream art movement, and continues beyond today. Vandalart is about one man and his love for Art. His journey from humble beginnings through his life as all revolved around one thing, that is making a mark on anything he can get his hands on. 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.
