    Within South Africa we courier your artwork to your door - the shipping cost will show at the checkout.

    When shipping art internationally, two primary options are commonly considered: crated and rolled. Crating involves securely packaging the artwork in a custom-built crate, providing maximum protection against physical damage but often resulting in higher shipping costs due to size and weight.
    On the other hand, rolling art involves taking stretched paintings off the frame, carefully wrapping the artwork and placing it in a protective tube. This method is more cost-effective and suitable for flexible pieces.
    Choosing between crating and rolling depends on the specific artwork's size, fragility, and budget, as well as the destination's shipping requirements and regulations.

    We will be in touch regarding the best options for you.

    Virtual hanging of art is an innovative service we offer that allows art enthusiasts and collectors to visualize how artworks will appear in their desired spaces before making a purchase. We digitally place the selected artworks on your walls, in the correct scale to achieve the desired aesthetic. This service not only helps in making informed decisions but also enhances the overall art-buying experience, providing a realistic preview of the final result and ensuring that the chosen artworks harmonize with the surrounding decor.

    Description

    Description of a Diasec

    A Diasec consists of 3 layers; an aluminium dibond board as the support material, the image on photographic paper (or an inkjet print), and a layer of acrylic glass.

    The image gets onto the photographic paper via laser light and the paper gets developed as conventional photographic paper in previous times.

    The paper used for the Diasec we sell is Fuji Chrystal Archival Paper, which has a specific glow and enhances the colours. Once finished, the image gets pasted on the aluminium dibond board and in a cleanroom covered with acrylic glass.

    Fuji gives a 75-year guarantee on colourfastness of the image and the acrylic glass filters around 90% of UV light.

    There are only very few companies worldwide who are able to produce Diasec in high quality. Because of this, we have all our Diasec made in Germany.

    Claude Chandler

    Claude Chandler

    Claude Chandler was born into the vibrant Durban art scene, with both of his parents being accomplished artists and influential figures. Growing up immersed in galleries and studios, Claude’s love for portraiture was sparked in 2005 when he began painting his high school teachers. This early project led to a flood of portrait commissions and solidified his identity as an artist while increasing his confidence in his abilities.

    Following his passion, Claude pursued a degree in Fine Art at the Durban University of Technology, where he honed his craft and developed his unique artistic voice. After graduating in 2011, he moved to Cape Town to pursue his art career. Since graduating, he has made his mark in the South African art world and beyond, participating in international art fairs, group shows, and solo exhibitions, as well as earning recognition as a finalist in the SPI Portrait Awards.

    In recent years, Claude has expanded his repertoire to include street art, producing murals throughout Cape Town and building a dynamic portfolio of urban works. He currently manages and works out of SideTrack Studios, a creative collective he founded in 2020.

    Through his portraits and street art, Claude seeks to capture the way he sees the world through his subjects. He invites viewers to question their own perceptions and to contemplate the relationship between the self and the digital world. His art is characterized by a vibrant energy and a deep commitment to capturing the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

    Claude Chandler is represented by The Artists Gallery in Cape Town.
