I_KONIQ - Moulin Rouge starlette's campari pause

I_KONIQ (1969) - (artistic name of Lijuk Crem) is a multifaceted artist who began his journey in the world of printing and graphics in 1988. His career started in offset printing, eventually becoming CEO of an important northern Italian typography and tripling turnover in just a few years; here he acquired solid knowledge of printing techniques and visual dynamics.

Over the years, Lijuk expanded his scope, exploring new artistic possibilities and ranging from pop art to visual reinterpretations of famous figures. His style is distinguished by a unique fusion of pop culture, references to iconic tradition, and bold use of colors. Just as Andy Warhol did with Campbell’s cans, or Mario Schifano with COCA-COLA, Lijuk reinterprets familiar images, elevating the ordinary to extraordinary through the use of modern graphic techniques and visual irony.

Each of his works is a tribute to the iconography of popular culture, yet at the same time, I_KONIQ manages to imprint his own personal vision, challenging and reinventing the very idea of celebrity and visual icon.

Today, Lijuk’s work testifies to how graphic art can evolve, keeping its communicative power intact while renewing it with a fresh and innovative perspective.

Each piece is HAND-signed on the front and numbered (on the white edge of the border) so as not to spoil the overall beauty of the work but to confer the correct value.

The print is produced with the Giclée technique in 12 passes in Digital Fine Art on premium glossy cotton canvas 380 g/m2.

To preserve colors over time, every work is handmade and varnished with a special treatment for highlights, color enhancement, and protection against long-term deterioration.

Each artwork is shipped in a rigid cardboard tube to safeguard your new purchase and, in addition to the artwork size, includes a lateral border for framing on the wooden frame, calculating a lateral thickness of 4 centimeters and a further outer border of over 4 cm that remains white for mounting on the back of the frame (not provided).

All the works of our artists are the result of creative hands and diverse cultures, even though they all come together, merging into a unique harmony.
