Henri Gaudier-Brzeska was a French artist and sculptor who developed a rough-hewn, primitive style of direct carving. His drawing style was influenced by Chinese calligraphy and poetry, studying the ideograms in galleries of Eastern art and applying it to his art. Gaudier-Brzeska had the ability to imply, with a few deft strokes, the being of a subject. His drawings also show the influence of Cubism. Despite only creating art for four years before his death, he had a surprisingly strong influence on 20th-century modernist sculpture in England and France.
Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
