In July 2013, we partnered with Marco Mazzoni (featured on the cover of Hi-Fructose Vol. 20) and Pressure Printing to create these “Santa Lucia” Hand-Embellished Prints. We sold out of these immediately. Marco Mazzoni has generously decided to have Hi-Fructose donate 100% of the proceeds from his five artist proofs to support the Huntington’s Disease Society of America‘s fight for a cure for Huntington’s Disease. The prints are each hand embellished by the artist, making them one of a kind items. See complete details here.
Full information on the print release.
Artist’s proofs will be made available on Tuesday, August 19 at Noon PST in the Hi-Fructose Store. We suggest ordering from a computer as there can be some inventory delay in mobile/iPad orders.
Each of the 5 artists’ proof prints are unique and are signed and numbered. You will not be able to pick a color or number. Artist Proofs are $450 plus Fed Ex Ground Shipping and Handling sent in foam lined boxes. First come, first served. Because of the one-of-a-kind nature and high value of this item, it will be only available for US billing addresses and for shipping to US locations.
Hi-Fructose will donate 100% of the proceeds to the Huntington’s Disease Society of America. Thanks to you, Marco Mazzoni and Pressure Printing for allowing us to help find a cure for and support those with this disease.
