Pantone Art:
Daniel Eatock's Pantone Pen prints:
Daniel Eatock sets his latest pen print experiment in the second ALSO* commission of The Aram Gallery.
Curator Daniel Charny describes the work:
Eatock’s predictive construct removes the artist’s hand from the pen, reverses the role of the paper, and allows its characteristics and positioning to become the most influential aspect of the work. Balanced on their nibs each of a set of 288 felt tip pens releases ink that expands into the layers of a ream of paper, making each layer of this multi-print different. This predicted variety is translated into a gambling tension for the consumer that chooses to purchase an unknown result on an unseen layer.
Dimensions: SRA1 640 x 900mm Edition Size: 73 original prints

Appleblueseagreen's Pantone Chips on Canvas:

A Pantone Manet masterpiece:
Tim Fraser Brown created a reproduction of Édouard Manet's 'Bar at the Folies Bergere' made entirely of old Pantone chips.
Over 5,000 unused chips were painstakingly colour matched and and stuck down over four long nights, and acted as centre piece for a boozey party in their design studio.
