Sometime in the early 1960’s a young man from St. Louis arrived in Chicago to attend The Art Institute. He accidentally discovered that the school would lend camera’s to students to take home with them. So he grabbed a 16mm movie camera and began filming the things he saw in his neighborhood. Fortunately, for us, being a poor college student, he lived in one of the rougher neighborhoods in Chicago and was able to document early ’60’s Chicago. He was always drawn to the weird, the unusual, and the very real.

The cost of framing a picture depends on a number of different variables. Firstly, you need to decide whether or not you want a custom solution or one off the shelf. If you opt for an off the shelf solution, the price will be significantly lower but so will the quality. For a custom solution, the materials you use, the city you’re in and most importantly the size of the piece will have an impact on the price. As an example, a 50cm x 50cm piece with a border could cost anything from €70 up to as much as €500 depending on the design and the materials you choose.

Frame colour is completely dependent on the piece itself and what colours/finishes will complement it. Another factor is the overall look you’re going for in the space the piece will be displayed. For a subtle look, try going for stained wood, white or black frames. If you want something that stands out more, why not try pulling out a key colour from the piece and colour-match the frame to it.
Mat colour is completely dependent on the piece itself and what colours will complement it. If in doubt it is always best to go for a white or off-white to allow the piece to sing, but if you’re feeling a bit more adventurous you can try pulling out one of the more subtle colours in the piece to really make it pop.
