GICLEE (jhee-clay)
French noun loosely translates to mean—'to spray'.

PROCESS
Giclée is a cutting edge, 8-to-12 color printing process that takes the place of outdated Iris and Offset techniques.The process uses a highly refined ink jet print head that has thousands of tiny nozzles that sprays very fine, overlapping layers of archival pigmented ink onto 100% rag archival acid free paper.

CONTEMPORY ART
"Today many major artists and photographers including Philip-Lorca Di Corcia, Catherine Opie, William Eggleston, William Wegman, James Rosenquist, Marc Riboud use the giclée printing process. Numerous examples of giclée prints can be found in New York City at the Metropolitan Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Chelsea Galleries. Recent auctions of giclée prints have fetched $10,800 for Annie Leibovitz, $9,600 for Chuck Close, and $22,800 for Wolfgang Tillmans."
