Metroartworks was founded in 1999 when giclée digital printing technology was relatively new. Originally called "The Canvas Company", we saw that giclée prints on canvas was the reproduction art of the future. It has turned out that this product has not replaced original art in the design industry (as was feared). It has, however, grown vastly in popularity as an alternative to poster prints behind glass. Our canvas prints are created using the eco-friendly and archival aqueous printing method. A topcoat of water soluble sealant (also eco-friendly) protects the canvas from fading and scratching while adding to the vibrance of the image. After placing our canvas art on thousands of walls in corporate, hospitality, healthcare, university, urban, and extremely high traffic areas, there have been no problems whatsoever with fading, scratching or vandalism. In recent years, the US Air Force has switched much its wall art for base medical centers from poster prints behind glass to canvas and continues to do so today. There are some areas where you, the designer, may still need images under plexi for coding, security or aesthetic reasons. Again, Metroartworks has a solution that is technically and aesthetically superior to out-dated framed poster prints. We offer aqueous giclée prints on heavy fine art paper in quality framing at prices comparable to posters. Once behind plexi, what's the difference? The aqueous giclée print is way more detailed, vibrant, and original looking than the poster. If the piece is photography, the difference is even more astounding. Plus, our fine art paper print has a 100 year guarantee not to fade.
