About Ule W. Ritgen
Ule W. Ritgen is a true multi-talent and internationally successful painter, lyricist and musician.
In 2007, he was voted one of the top 5 songwriters in Japan. His band "Fair Warning" has long been a cult in Asia: "I already had golden records on the wall as a musician when my childhood dream of painting caught up with me again." In his paintings, he combines surreal dreamscapes with old-masterly pictorial composition: "It is only a wafer-thin membrane that separates the world of our dreams from the so-called 'real world'. For me, the transitions are completely fluid – reality has many levels and facets."
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, spurt".
The giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format printout on an inkjet printer with special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The colours are fade-proof, i.e. resistant to harmful UV light. They have a high richness of nuance, contrast and saturation.
The giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade and watercolour paper as well as for silk.
