Tropical Vampires Gicleé Print

from $40.00

Vulture funds suck the life out of island-living Puerto Ricans in this allegorical painting describing how the island’s unaudited debt is paid. A gorgeous beach is the background for this story of greed that anyone who pays taxes will understand. The original oil on canvas painting measures 24 x 36.” Frame not included.

The Harvard Political Review explains how it works:

“…Puerto Rico is subject to the Jones Act, which means Puerto Rico can only receive goods shipped from U.S. ports on American-owned ships, greatly benefiting the nation at the island’s expense. Studies have concluded that without the Jones Act, Puerto Rico could have gained nearly $1.5 billion of economic activity and 13,250 jobs. Similarly, we ignore the fact that the U.S. Navy controlled over 26,000 acres of Puerto Rican land on the island of Vieques from 1941 to 2003, a large part of which they rented out to other armed forces for profits of over $80 million a year. Moreover, most U.S. companies pay virtually no taxes to the Puerto Rican government. The island’s colonial status has hindered economic development and continues to do so.”

Please note that gicleé prints are made to order and cannot be returned. Please review your purchase carefully before confirming your order.

What is a Gicleé Print?
Gicleé is a French term meaning “to spray.” Large format inkjet printers use small spraying devices that can both match color and apply ink precisely, giving artists a high-quality print of their original art. The prints sold here are open editions. This means that the number of prints that can be created and sold from one image is unlimited.

How to Frame It Yourself
Work on paper and gicleé prints look best under glass, with a 2” or 3” acid-free matt. Most art supply stores sell single matts and glass/metal framing kits for the smaller sizes. For your convenience, I have listed the matt and frame size for each of the most common sizes sold here:

If the gicleé is 9 x 12,” the matt and frame should be 12 x 16”
If the gicleé is 12 x 16,” the matt and frame should be 16 x 20”
If the gicleé is 18 x 24,” the matt and frame should be 24 x 30”

Gicleé Specs
Gicleé fine art prints are made from a high resolution image using an Epson 9800 printer with eight color K3 Ultrachrome inkset. This archival* quality paper is acid and lignen-free and 100 % cotton, 300 gm with a smooth surface. Giclee printing uses pigment-based inks rather than the dye based inks found in most common inkjet printers.

Care
Like a lot of original work on paper, gicleé prints are damaged by both humidity and UV rays. In other words, they can get moldy in tropical climates and can fade under direct sunlight. Limit their exposure by hanging them on a wall that does not receive direct sunlight during any season or time of the day. In tropical climates, try to hang them inside air-conditioned rooms.

*Archival is an industry term used to describe something that is resistant to deterioration with excellent longevity.

“One would have to knock to pieces all the international rights of the world, all the political rights of the world, to validate the invasion of the U.S. in Puerto Rico and the present military occupation of our national territory.” Don Pedro Albizu Campos
