Enveloping the viewer and dominating even the largest interior spaces, large-scale Giant size artwork visually & emotionally creates a strong lasting impact.


For a very long time, artists and their patrons have utilized size to display power and prestige to impress their audiences. In the 18th century USA, landscape painting was considered to be one of the most important types and thus was executed on bigger canvases.

 

Interpreted by some to represent the freedom of American expression. Hudson River School painter artist Albert Bierstadt created monumental nature landscape scenes on large-scale canvases that could take up an entire wall.

 

In the 1980s, technology for creating human-scale photographic prints emerged and thus became a part of the practice of few artists seeking new extreme ways to express themselves. In the 1990s, the group most commonly associated with large-scale photography, and in many ways responsible for the worldwide popularity of the technique, were the students of Bernd and Hilla Becher at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf in Germany.

 

Today, our large-scale photography artworks are used to describe photographs that are much larger in size than those associated with traditional film photography. Although they are generally associated with digital color printing, they encompass traditional chemical printing techniques (vintage wet process photo paper).
