Time Art Gallery’s ‘Art on the Street’ team has been on its annual tour of the UK’s summer festivals where it sells signed, collectable limited edition prints and original works of art reproduced on Epson large-format inkjet printers.
Time Art Gallery is an artist-run fine art publisher established over seven years ago by photographer Yannick Yanoff and artist Michael Kozlov. It now represents a number of independent London-based artists such as Dan Avenell, Lewis Campbell, Steve Moss and Maria Luisa Azzini.
Originally set up to sell artworks from an outlet in London’s Camden Lock market, the company opened further outlets in Greenwich market and Portobello Road market and launched a first edition online order website www.timeart.co.uk. It currently owns six Epson printers: three 44in Stylus Pro 9800 models and three 24in Stylus Pro 7890s, all supplied by Epson distributor Colourbyte.
Each of the shopping centre stores has its own dedicated Epson printer which not only allows them to replenish stock levels but also print on-demand from artwork collections in-store. They also offer a bespoke canvas print service so that customers can bring in their own digital images to be printed. The remaining two Epson printers are based at the company’s office in London and are used on a daily basis to produce canvasses and limited edition prints.
The artworks are printed onto a range of media including semi-matte proofing paper, glossy photo paper, and a range of synthetic canvasses which are hand stretched onto 4cm deep wooden frames and secured with transparent varnish.
“Our aim is to produce high-quality professional photographs and fine art prints with high colour accuracy,” said Yannick. “We use Epson printers because we know we can rely on them to create true-to-original prints that our artists and customers will be happy with. Epson has the best reputation for quality and reliability and the printers are very easy to install and use.”
