Reasons To Get Images In Acrylic Photo Prints For Exhibits

By David Fisher


Photographs and other visual art forms are very important in the way that they can hold the soul of certain age in history. Great art will always be timeless and more often than not becomes an iconic image that can represent a generation. Even with what technology is available, artists have made it a point that the invention of new media does not destroy the essence of making art.

Good quality prints are not particularly hard to find if they were meant to be small scale ones. But for large pieces, getting somethings that can match the digital format may be a bit tricky. Acrylic photo prints are especially good at showing high definition images and are perfect for those that plan to print their high definition photographs.

The more popular option is actually canvas printing since it has been used for a long time now. What many have been picking up though, is using acrylic printing methods for their ability to make colors pop up. But many professionals know that the method to choose would depend on the photograph, since each has their own aesthetic attribute.

Knowing which one to choose it vital because the way the photograph is presented can do so much to the way it is seen. The process that makes up for acrylic prints involves the image being printed on a photo paper and being pressed between two sheets of acrylic. The back panel can either be white, black or transparent depending on what would be fit for the image.

Artist who prefer a sharper image, especially when it comes to high def photographs should largely consider the more high tech option. A piece printed in this method gives off a more of a modern vibe that makes it perfect for a more contemporary and current settings. This claim does not discredit the advantages of canvas printing since that in itself has its own style.

Because this method produces top quality with the best available resolution, it is often used for office and corporate settings. It gives the impression of sharpness. These can be mounted using either a frame or aluminum support. Thankfully, the aluminum perfectly blends with the image and does not visually disrupt it.

Best to choose the acrylic route when it comes to images that are supposed to have vibrant colors. Since this material is reflective the colors remain deep, rich and vibrant. This is due to the fact that no light passes through the sheet. You can also have the sheet be covered with UV protection so sunlight does not damage it.

The downside is how this is the more expensive among all the available option. The price that you pay is well compensated for since these prints are also very durable. The coating makes the product waterproof and UV protected. Canvases are not by default with varnish and UV protection but a lacquer or substance can be added to achieve this, post print.

Cleaning and maintenance is also easier. All you need to get is a specialized product found in the market, usually also used for glass and other similar surfaces. These materials are also very affordable and easy to find. It just takes a few minutes to apply the substance and wipe it down.
