Description from the seller
Chromatic Rhythm (2004)
During a concert at the Hard Rock Cafe in Dubai, the stage lights transform the moment into a chromatic explosion. The movement of the audience and the musicians merges with the beams of light, creating an almost abstract image where the music seems to become color and the scene turns into pure energy.
This image was realized by Franco Turcati in 2004.
Print Type
Produced by the specialized company Multicolor, directed by Chiara Cascone, in Fine Art Giclée print on 310 g Cotton Canson Etching paper in 29.7x42 format. This is no. 19 of the edition of 25 copies with museum quality.

Conservation of artworks — Advice
For optimal preservation of your Fine Art print:
Our Fine Art prints deserve special care to preserve their quality over time, preventing yellowing or fading.
It is recommended to always handle them with clean, dry cotton gloves.
If framing, use a passe-partout to avoid direct contact between the print and the glass.
Store prints away from direct light. Even the materials of storage boxes are important: lignin-containing or acid-free paper can damage the print support and promote yellowing.
