The Story.
Terry Gilliam crouched in a stairwell at a London editing suite whilst working on The Zero Theorem. Terry began life as an animator and strip cartoonist and has become one of the worlds most accomplished film directors in the field of magical realism. From his early ground breaking work on the Monty Python films, Terry has established himself as a remarkable storyteller. Intent on showing his audience that the world is not what they’re told it is by the mainstream media and shunning the dictates of the big studios who persist in producing ersatz formulaic films, he has forged his own path. From Brazil, to The Fisher King and 12 Monkeys he expounds an anti-establishment approach, ridiculing bureaucracy and authoritarian regimes.
“I think we live in age where we’re just hammered, hammered to think this is what the world is. Television’s saying, everything’s saying ‘That’s the world’. And it’s not the world. The world is a million possible things.”
All prints are all archival, meaning they will last for well over 75 years. Most of his prints are reproduced on Hahnemühle Fine Art photo paper, regarded as one of the best photographic papers in the world. The majority of prints are printed using Giclée printing which reproduces incredible detail and brilliant colour, and has a higher resolution than traditional lithographic printing. All Limited Edition prints come with a Certificate of Authentication stating the print title, edition number, date of printing and are signed by the artist and stamped with his photographer's seal. The print itself is also titled, numbered and signed in pencil by the artist. All prints come with a pair of print handling gloves and a “Handling & Framing Your Print” instruction sheet.
Print sizes are quoted as the edge to edge dimensions of the paper itself, including the border around the image. Borders will vary according to the image dimensions, but will typically be between 1 to 2 ½ inches.
Each print will have a strict limitation to its edition run, plus a maximum of 2APs (Artist Proofs) marked 1/AP and 2/AP.
