ART RESTORATION OF ALEXANDER CALDER LITHOGRAPH

Restored Lithograph

One of our main goals at Frame Minnesota is to take art, photographs, and memorabilia out of the shadows—whether those are real shadows or the shadows of a storage box—and bring them into a prominent place in your home or office. We are artists ourselves, and making sure that our customers’ treasured art is well taken care of is always our goal.

Sometimes, our customers have art  that has been damaged over the passage of time, or climate, or storage, or any number of issues. That’s where a specialty expertise of Frame Minnesota comes in—art restoration. When a customer has something that needs some extra TLC, we partner with art restoration experts to bring it back to life in the most beautiful (and careful!) way.

Art restoration is essentially art combined with chemistry—it takes a great knowledge of art and the different artistic mediums used, plus the ability to pick out the right tools to get the job done. Restoration experts take the utmost care to ensure that the art or photograph is protected during the process.

This piece is by Alexander Calder,  an American sculptor, painter and print maker, and it is a silkscreen print. Check out the before and after—this piece of art had its vibrancy and color restored beautifully, and then it was ready for a perfect frame. Our client chose a simple but beautiful matting and frame that lets the art shine and will protect it many years into the future.
