Flamingo Kids #1

Sebastian Mader | New York, 2012

Type: Limited Studio Edition

Medium: Archival Pigment on Hahnemühle Fine Art Baryta (325 gsm)

Signature: Hand-signed and numbered on the front margin

Edition Structure: Pooled Edition of 75 + 8 Artist Prints

Suspended in the hazy endlessness of a mid-century summer, Flamingo Kids captures a cinematic tableau of youth and leisure. Drawing inspiration from the vivid, saturated palettes of the 1960s, Mader explores the voyeuristic intimacy of a shared vacation—where mysteries remain intact and every glance is a narrative in waiting.

As part of a definitive five-part series, this work captures friends caught in a joyous moment of shared warmth. In the image’s fashion-inspired portrayal of characters lounging together, their stories unfold for the viewer to determine. This work is now released in its final archival form as a Limited Studio Edition.

The Chromira Era: Legacy Artist Series (2018)
Produced using high-definition LED-exposure on Fuji Crystal Archive paper. This legacy series utilized traditional light-sensitive chemistry. Following the global discontinuation of specific Fuji chemical stocks, the artist officially retired this series to protect the integrity of the archive.

Small Format Edition Note: This legacy edition was formally closed at #32. Numbers 1–10 are held within the Permanent Studio Archive and have been withheld from public acquisition. Consequently, only 22 copies of this edition (#11–32) exist within private collections worldwide.

Large Format Edition Note: This legacy edition was formally closed at #25. Numbers 1–10 are held within the Permanent Studio Archive. Only 15 physical copies of this large-scale legacy release exist in private hands worldwide.

The Definitive Studio Edition (2026 – Present)
The current and final archival standard for the studio. This edition utilizes premium pigment technology on Hahnemühle Fine Art Baryta (325 gsm) for superior tonal depth and 100+ year longevity. Unlike previous iterations, each work is hand-signed and numbered by the artist on the front lower margin to certify its status as the definitive Limited Studio Edition.

Limited Studio Edition
The Studio release is produced using premium archival pigment technology on Hahnemühle Fine Art Baryta (325 gsm). This medium is engineered for 100+ year stability. Each work is hand-signed and numbered by Sebastian Mader on the front lower margin to certify its origin within the Studio Archive.

Pooled Edition Model
To ensure scarcity, each image is released as a strictly limited edition shared across all available dimensions. This "pooled" model establishes a fixed cap on the total number of physical works created for any given image. Once an edition is exhausted, the image is closed and no longer produced in this medium.

Tiered Pricing
The Studio utilizes a market-driven tiered pricing structure. As an edition reaches specific inventory milestones, the price for the remaining works increases to reflect growing scarcity. Acquisition early in the release cycle ensures the most favorable valuation.

Dimensions & Presentation
Listed dimensions refer to the Total Paper Size. Each work is produced to the artist's specific physical profile, which includes a white exhibition border designed for the hand-signature and edition numbering.

Studio Framing
Gallery-standard framing is currently available for collectors within the contiguous United States. For international framing requirements and white-glove shipping, please contact the Studio directly for a custom logistics quote.

The Gallery Frame
Hardwood frames are available in Satin White, Satin Black, or Natural Maple. Hand-crafted in the USA, these frames are selected for their structural longevity and clean, contemporary exhibition profile.

Archival Mounting
To ensure structural integrity, all prints are dry-mounted to acid-free substrates using museum-grade archival materials. This process maintains the flatness of the work and prevents warping over time.

Professional Finishing
Framed works arrive installation-ready. Each piece is equipped with professional-grade hanging hardware, protective wall bumpers, and a museum-grade paperback dust cover to seal the internal assembly against environmental dust.

Specialist Commissions
For collectors requiring custom finishes, shadow boxes, or oversized configurations not listed on the platform, the Studio offers private consultations for bespoke framing solutions.

Standard UV-Filter Acrylic
Standard archival glazing providing 99% UV protection. This material offers the optical clarity of glass with superior shatter resistance, ensuring the long-term stability of the work during transit and exhibition.

Museum Anti-Reflective Acrylic
The global institutional standard for high-fidelity exhibition. This anti-reflective glazing is virtually invisible, eliminating surface glare while maintaining 99% UV protection.

Technical Note: The specialized anti-reflective coating may exhibit a subtle green hue when viewed at extreme oblique angles; this is a characteristic of the optical technology and does not affect the color accuracy of the print.

Domestic Shipping (Contiguous US)
Complimentary standard shipping is included for both unframed and framed works within the contiguous United States.

International Logistics
Standard international rates apply to unframed works at checkout. International shipping for framed works requires a custom logistics quote; please contact the Studio for private courier arrangements and white-glove delivery options.
