BLU – CMYK

Description

The “c.m.y.k.” print is a thoughtful piece of art created by the Italian street artist known as Blu. It was released by POW in 2009 on tinted paper in black, red, and white.

The print features an intricate printing press that generates a solitary red heart, which stands out boldly against the striking colour combination of the artwork. The print’s title, “c.m.y.k.”, pays tribute to the CMYK printing process, which employs cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black) to produce a wide range of hues.

The complexity of the printing press used to create the heart is truly remarkable. The printer clearly has a deep appreciation for love, as evidenced by the tremendous effort he invested in constructing the press and printing the heart.

The result is a stunning work of art that captures the essence of this most fundamental of human emotions.
