Why Use Acrylic Photo Prints For Exhibit Photographs Instead

By David Fisher


Art has evolved in so many forms through out the centuries. Now we are given the privilege to produce and reproduce a piece using a variety of media and print them in many different ways. Even with the presence of these technologies, it does not stop art from conveying powerful emotions and messages.

Good quality prints are not particularly hard to find if they were meant to be small scale ones. But for large pieces, getting somethings that can match the digital format may be a bit tricky. Acrylic photo prints are especially good at showing high definition images and are perfect for those that plan to print their high definition photographs.

Each method has their own corresponding benefits and perks. When it comes to price if canvas was compared to acrylic, canvas would be more widely used because it is cheaper. While it has the price advantage it can only produce two thirds of the color gamut that acrylic does. But whether to get one or the other largely depends on the style the artist is going for.

Choosing one method can make so much of a difference depending on what the image would be used for. The response the intended audience may give is also taken into consideration. These prints use photograph paper and then pressed between two five millimeter acrylic sheets. The front panel is essentially transparent to show the image, but the back can either be transparent, black or white.

For those that prefer a sharp presentation when for their photos, this is the best method to choose. This gives the product a contemporary edge when compared to canvas prints. Although, canvas is also really good if you want a more textured, authentic, old look vibe for your prints.

Because this method produces top quality with the best available resolution, it is often used for office and corporate settings. It gives the impression of sharpness. These can be mounted using either a frame or aluminum support. Thankfully, the aluminum perfectly blends with the image and does not visually disrupt it.

Consider how you would want to view the colors. There are also other artists that would prefer to have the soft feel that canvas printing can offer. But if the quality of black, reflectivity and vibrancy of the print is something that you prioritize then the most high definition option would do the job.

The downside is how this is the more expensive among all the available option. The price that you pay is well compensated for since these prints are also very durable. The coating makes the product waterproof and UV protected. Canvases are not by default with varnish and UV protection but a lacquer or substance can be added to achieve this, post print.

Cleaning the print is also considerably easier. The material or substance used can compare with what you can use with glass and other same textured surfaces. You are guaranteed that the photo surface is waterproof, so even if you decide to just use water as the cleaning agent, it would not affect the image quality.
