Our Vision
We believe art should be accessible to everyone. That is why we propose an innovative way to appreciate it. Our Pay-What-You-Want model, the first of its kind for an online gallery, allows you to download all art on sssquare.com in high resolution, starting from CHF 0. 100% of what you pay will benefit the artist. We believe that this is a great way for you to explore artwork featured on sssquare.com.
We think that art on our platform will gain a much greater exposure this way. If you are taken by what you see then you can purchase a limited or open edition sssquare print on our website. Each print is shipped with a numbered and hand signed certificate of authenticity by the artist.
The sssquare Certificate of Authenticity
A few days after you have received your print we will send you the signed certificate of authenticity by post. To ensure your art can easily be identified as a limited edition sssquare print, we recommend that you apply the certificate to the back of the print.
Our manufacturing process
We use a high quality printing process to ensure that your print is exactly as the artist intended. Victor Keller, our skilled artisan, and his team produce our prints in Switzerland and Germany. We guarantee 90 years of colour fastness on all our products.
Fine Art Print
Printed on Museo, a 100% matte cotton paper, manufactured to archival standards of the Library of Congress.The paper for our Fine Art Prints is provided by Museo (pronounced Moo-zay-o) originally developed by Crane & Company in the U.S.. The company has continually supplied cotton-based paper to the United States Treasury for its currency since 1879. The Fine Art Print comes with a 2cm border and is an ideal choice if you would like to frame your artwork.
Mounted Fine Art Print
Printed on Museo, a 100% matte cotton paper, fixed to a solid aluminium (dibond) backing.This Fine Art print on Museo paper is fixed to a solid aluminium (dibond) backing consisting of three layers for upmost stability. The backing is hand crafted and all edges are smoothed. Affixed hanging elements are included. This is an ideal choice if you plan on hanging up your print without wanting to framing it. Due to trimming during production the Mounted Fine Art Print is 1 cm smaller in width and height.
Museum Fine Art Print
Lambda print on Kodak Endura paper, fixed to a solid aluminium (dibond) backing, protected by a non-reflective museum glass.This is our most splendid product. The manufacturing process has been perfected by the Fachcolor Bühler GmbH in Germany in close collaboration with expert glass producers. This ensures a true museum like quality with no disturbing reflections and an unmatched colour depth. Thanks to the UV protection the glass provides, your print will not bleach out when exposed to direct daylight. The Museum Print comes with affixed hanging elements so you can comfortably mount your piece of art on any wall you wish.
The sssquare squad
We are six friends who share a common passion: art and design. It would be a bit pretentious, not to mention incorrect, to say that we spend our weekends in galleries admiring Picasso and Monet. But we are very much drawn to contemporary artwork. We earn our living in the creative industries and have been following trends in design and art for years. We believe this leaves us well placed to present a selection of curated art on sssquare.com. We all live in Zurich, Switzerland but we like to think of sssquare as an international enterprise. We love discovering new and upcoming artists and illustrators from all over the world.
