Simon Bang has just been in the workshop in Paris and created 2 amazing new lithographs. This is now the second time Simon has visited the workshop to work with the ancient printing technique – stone printing. We expect them to be ready and signed in mid-April. But due to the great interest that has been shown, we have decided to open up for PRESALE already now.
Original lithographs for sale by Simon Bang
A lithograph – also called lithography – is a technique that is almost 250 years old. In short, it is a limestone that serves as the artist’s canvas. Simon Bang draws the design directly on the stone with a bold marker – one color at a time. Then the edition is printed with the desired color. The stone is then sanded, and is now ready for the artist to draw the next color. It’s a slow process and there are about 10 layers of color in Simon Bang’s lithographs.
