KALEIDOSCOPE is delighted to announce the release of Ida Ekblad’s screen-print Picture Phosphorescence, the Pure, Again (2015). This is the first in a series of limited editions produced in partnership with Counter Editions, UK’s leading website for buying contemporary art.
Employing the inherent block-building process of screen printing, the Norwegian artist has created a print of competing colors and surfaces. Using a special additive, the final screened layer of white ink used for the graffiti figures and calligraphy is passed under a special heater, causing the ink to rise.
This edition is released on the occasion of a definitive monographic survey on Ida Ekblad that serves as the cover story of KALEIDOSCOPE’s current issue #23, comprised of an essay by Peter J. Amdam, an interview by Cory Arcangel, and an original portrait by photographer Sølve Sundsbø.
