Art Glossary: What is a Serigraph?

African American Art Glossary

We have several products for sale on our site which are classified as “Serigraphs”.  Occasionally, we have customers that visit our site and email us to find out exactly what a “Serigraph” is and how it differs from various other printing techniques.  Below you will find a link to a site that explains this printing technique simply and clearly and also two videos that visually show “Serigraphs” being created.  Hopefully, between these two resources it will allow everyone to understand this printing technique and justify why serigraphs are more expensive.

I also haven’t heard before about Serigraphs, but after watching this video, I understood what it is, so this printing technique is very interesting, but please where I can see the prices on them, because I am really very interested in Serigraphs, so looking forward to your answer.
