Mark Wagner
WTF Portuguese
€100,00 EUR
America, WTF (Portuguese), 2025
Archival pigment print
(from original currency collage)
11x14 in
The artwork of Mark Wagner is constructed entirely as analog collage from dissected US one-dollar bills. The silent figure of George Washington has thus played pantomime in the work for decades, solo-acting every roll from anonymous crowd member to mythic hero. Now Washington speaks out. These prints are the tip on an iceberg... the first in a series of currency collage comics currently in development. These prints reproduce the original collage at just over its constructed size.

Every print is produced using museum-grade giclée printing on Hahnemühle German Etching—a heavyweight paper favoured by artists for its distinctive character. The strong mottled texture holds more ink, delivering deep blacks and vibrant colours with rich contrast that brings each collage to life.
At 310gsm with a slightly warm base tone, this robust cotton paper has a handmade, crafted quality. The textured surface catches light beautifully, giving each piece genuine gallery presence. With 11-colour ultra-wide gamut inks, these prints are built to last—archival rated for 80 years.
Built to handle like the art object it is.
