About the Work

We are proud to have collaborated with Ellen Berkenblit and Anton Kern Gallery on Caleo, a silkscreen edition of 35. Derived from Latin, caleo means warmth, an apt wording for its brightly hued palette that is emblematic of Berkenblit's oeuvre. Berkenblit builds explosive compositions that are celebrations of line, color, and form. Her paintings feature recurring characters — cartoon-like subjects, sharp high-heels, smatterings of floral bouquets, and a brightly hued tiger. For Berkenblit, the figurative molds in her paintings serve as conduits to explore the abstract rather than representing definitive subject matter.

Artist Biography

Be sure to keep your Certificate of Authenticity (COA) in a safe place. We are unable to replace or reissue COAs.

Framing

Framed artwork is custom framed once it is ordered. Allow 3-5 weeks for framing and delivery.

FRAME
All of our frames are made from sustainably sourced engineered hardwood that is manufactured in the USA. Frames are available in Black or White Matte and Walnut.

MAT
Prints are hinged to a conservation quality, acid-free and lignin-free Cellulose matboard, using acid-free polyethylene cloth tape. Each mat’s surface paper is fade and bleed resistant and is attached to a conversation quality foam-core board. Some of our work (typically those pieces with a deckled edge) is floated on the matboard with spacers to separate the artwork from the glazing.

GLAZING
We use museum quality .060 mm plexiglass to frame your work. It blocks 82-85% of UV rays to prevent color fading from exposure to light, protecting your art for years to come.

DIMENSIONS
Our White and Black frames have a ⅞” wide flat face and are 15/16” deep. Mats are 1” wide for prints up to 8” x 10”. Mats are 2” wide for prints larger than 8” x 10”.

Our Natural and Walnut frames have a ¾” wide flat face and are 1 ⅛” deep. Mats are 1” wide for prints up to 8” x 10”. Mats are 2” wide for prints larger than 8” x 10”.

Any artwork that is floated will be placed in a frame that has a ⅝” wide flat face and is 1 5/16” deep. Work will be floated with a 1” border around it.
