How to correctly sign and label lottery product?
 

Me with one of the artists, the promotion of which I am now starting to deal with, it was decided to manufacture replicable copies of three of his paintings before the upcoming exhibition. How to sign (on top of an existing signature on the reverse side, a marker or butter) and label (number of copies) limited edition prints? Can the size of prints vary slightly from the originals?
At what other points in the manufacture of lottery products is worth paying attention to?

It is desirable that differed significantly.

1 /3 - ie the first copies. of the three. Signature.

Now divorced printing methods "under canvas" onto the canvas. Would not recommend doing it.

Why not recommend making copies on canvas and are then better make copies?
Exactly where to put their signature and what better to do?
What else, besides the signature must be written by hand artist?

Why ?....

In fact, must differ (in size) from the originals ..

1:1 do unethical (from information-I do not remember, but I'm sure)

So why you wrote it, if not certain? 1 to 1 may not be copied museum items, and everything else - and ethically, and we can, and as the soul wants, if she owns the copyright holder of the image.

Absolutely the right decision, and in general good fellow artist. Many people are afraid to go that route because of some unexplained fears (like 10 years ago were afraid to shoot photography, so as not copied someone :D).
Sign on the reverse side and give a piece of paper with an identity of authorship, bio and dr.atributami a trifle - a nice buyer.
Limited circulation in your case is meaningless, because you'll make it through the printer, rather than mechanically. So do nearly all the artists in the West: make a picture - and sell it to print. The only thing from what would be warned - from fraud and deception, as has already been written. Selling print - you're selling intellectual work, and selling a filled oil drum - a rattle for an uneducated man. Just do not do it for the sake of self-respect.

That's just confident and remembered how: When to order giclees (prints) of his works (X, M), was speaking at the workshop.

Piece of paper called: "The certificate of identity" ...

"Certificate of Authenticity" (in English)

What a snowstorm?

Blizzard you have, we all settled down:

Ie you have identified several successful works that can be bought and decided to make copies of them at affordable tsenam.Tak say, not for the collection, and for interera.S a marketing standpoint, the decision pravilnoe.O format is better to consult with the designers, but in any case it should not at times differ from the original.
On these copies behind write legibly and indelibly, that - is a copy made such and such a way with the original picture. And then all the details originala.Ukazhite number of copies made (of course, the smaller the better < ! - ~ 1 ~ - "). "Certify" and the signature hudozhnika.Nekotorye make more certificates. It is beautiful and adds solidity :)

Agreed.

Atte.
Sur, and you'll replicate oil or graphics?

 Oil on canvas.
 I think that is good advice. Thank you artcol and tandem.
 Thanks and all the other panellists.

 Can you clarify something about the certificates? How are they doing and how they look?
 It turns out to make a good copy is not so simple. For many prints had to hack to death, then the color, the contrast of something wrong. Now try to do in Moscow.
  Pictures I've hit, and looked a hundred percent semdyasyat "squeal" with delight (I'm among them).
 In addition to copies of copyright, what else can come up with replication? Where are the pictures traders posters? Probably going to try and get to IKEA.
 And most importantly do not go past royalties ... :)

sur, you've all finally find out, let me know. As I understand it, giclee, very expensive. My pictures in the original cost less than giclee with them :-) I would just do a large-format printing on paper or cloth banner. Will cost a hundred rubles A1 size - it is when wholesale and good search, and into the first announcing and 500 and 800 USD per unit. T e when typing a substantial amount, the more economical to buy large-format printer and print yourself. Thus, by the way, you avoid leakage. And then You give the file and where is the guarantee that they themselves did not leave and do not popolzuyutsya if it as good as you describe ...
