Silkscreen

A silkscreen print (also called screen print or serigraph) is made by pressing ink through a mesh screen onto a surface using a stencil to create the design. Each color requires a separate screen, resulting in bold, vibrant images, often produced in limited editions.

Buying silkscreen prints from renowned galleries or trusted dealers ensures provenance, which is crucial for resale value. With limited editions such as silkscreen prints, you can often purchase directly from the publisher, guaranteeing the work comes directly from the source and in mint condition. Schellmann Art, a respected publisher with decades of experience, offers limited edition prints from over 200 contemporary artists, maintaining the highest standards of quality and authenticity. Our curated selection includes a notable range of silkscreen prints by artists including Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Sarah Morris, and Sol LeWitt.

Famous Pop Art artists renowned for their silkscreen works include Andy Warhol, perhaps the most iconic figure in the medium, celebrated for his Marilyn Monroe, Campbell’s Soup Cans, Mao, and Flowers series. Roy Lichtenstein is known for his comic book-inspired silkscreens, while Robert Indiana created the legendary LOVE print and other bold, text-based silkscreen works. In the UK, Richard Hamilton played a pivotal role, bringing silkscreen into the heart of British Pop Art.
