How would you float mount an artboard
Been asked to 'Float' mount an original spray paint on a canvas board.
The rear of the board has been signed and dated by the artist... anyone remember Bauhaus? it's by the guitarist Danny Ash.
As you can see below it's quite thick and at 16 x 20 has a little weight to it.
Would foamboard squares stuck towards the corners be the wrong thing to do
Any advice greatly received.

Re: How would you float mount an artboard
How about cutting a piece of foamboard, say 10mm thick, 30mm smaller than the artwork, bond this to the back-board and then use Velcro coins or similar to attach the piece to the foamboard. It can then be taken off to see the signature on the rear.

Bauhaus - great Northampton band - Pete Murphy / Daniel Ash / Kevin Haskins / David J - some great albums too...
In the Flat Field / Mask / Buring From The Inside / Cracke & the epic 12" Bela Lugosi's Dead!!!
As for the panel - fresh out of ideas for anything you could stick to the back that would "vanish without trace" if removed - maybe you could bite the bullet & use a couple of strips of velcro - top & bottom - with 10mm foamboard with velcro underneath - it could be removed to show the sticker - but the velcro would remain on the panel...

Re: How would you float mount an artboard
I'd use pass-through hinges just like if it was on paper - just probably more of them and heavier weight.
The signature can either be photocopied and stuck on the back of the frame or you could cut an aperture in your mounting board to reveal it and back the frame with glass or acrylic

Re: How would you float mount an artboard
Thanks all..Yes Steve, great band. Saw them twice... Made it to a back stage party too...
Not sure if 'seeing' the signature is necessary as it's for his mum, so she knows who it is but like the idea. Think I might photo the details and print a repro for the back. Doing this one for materials only ... Danny is the wifes cousin.
As for the hinges... good to see you back John! Want to give it a bit of space from the back so maybe mitretights 10mm foamboard route might be the way to go....
Thanks again
Chris

Re: How would you float mount an artboard
Not without opening up a copyright issue. Unless permission has been given you can't copy the image (or any part of it) and even if permission has been given I doubt that it covers a snapshot to be posted on a forum.Graysalchemy wrote:can we not see the artwork?
Re: How would you float mount an artboard
Hope you got permission from Alistair to copy his post
But seriously - there's a forum here called 'The good, the bad and the ugly' where we post work we have done etc - most will include artwork - has to really to show how the frame shows it off. Other forums like 'help' (how do I frame this) show artwork too. Most framers' websites show stuff they have framed - did they all get permission from artists/publishers etc? Doubt it.
I suppose anyone that owned the copyright to an image seeing it on a website might have a right to insist it was removed, but the main concern would be re-use for monetary gain, which isn't an issue on this forum and wouldn't be allowed.

Re: How would you float mount an artboard
Why not take a photo of the room the picture is in cunningly placing it somewhere where it can be clearly seen. I'm sure the BBC don't ask every shop on the high street for permission to use their logos when they do outside broadcasts.Not without opening up a copyright issue. Unless permission has been given you can't copy the image (or any part of it) and even if permission has been given I doubt that it covers a snapshot to be posted on a forum.
I'd be very upset if my wife's cousin's mother sued me for copyright infringement. Assuming I had one.
Re: How would you float mount an artboard
No but all art work in their sets is hired from a company which pays the artist a royalty each time it is used they can't use anythingh which they don't have the rights to. Outside I think is different but you do see a lot of pixilation of logo's on channel 4.retropic wrote:I'm sure the BBC don't ask every shop on the high street for permission to use their logos when they do outside broadcasts.
Anyway how did this become an issue of copyright all I did was ask to see the painting.
Next time I post I will consult my legal team.

I'm a bit of a technical person (my wife says I have OCD issues...) I doubt very much if the artist would have issues with a snap of the art being displayed for the members of this forum, who are artists in their own right.
Sorry guys, I'll try to reel it in.

Re: How would you float mount an artboard
This project has now been completed. Thanks for all advice. Panel on 15mm 1"squares of foam board. Thought it wouldn't look right under glass so went for the eau natural look. Panel was painted with spray paints so tough as old boots!
Looks good... well I think so!
DJS Phoenix 0002 frame and spacer 0015... Black mount board laminated with linen laminate. CA photo'd and reproduced on rear again with a linen laminate.
