Screen print

Serigraphy is a printing technique that uses a stencil stretched over a mesh screen, allowing ink to pass only through selected areas. Originating in China more than a thousand years ago, it gradually spread before reaching major prominence in the twentieth century. Employed both in industry and in artistic creation, serigraphy established itself as a key medium of modern and contemporary art, offering vivid colors and reproducible motifs on paper, textile, cardboard, metal or glass.

Many artistic movements embraced serigraphy and screen printing, from pop art to abstract experiments and street art. Andy Warhol turned the screen print into a central tool of his iconic portraits, while Shepard Fairey relied on serigraphy for his political posters. Keith Haring, with his dynamic forms, and Takashi Murakami, with his colorful pop compositions, also reinforced the importance of screen printing as an artistic practice. Adaptable to small and large formats, serigraphy applies to diverse themes, from portraiture and urban motifs to geometric compositions.

Today, serigraphy attracts both collectors and art enthusiasts for its versatility and cultural value. To discover a serigraphy or a screen print is to explore a technique that combines tradition and modernity.
