Artovision is a Wisconsin-based company that creates 3-dimensional collectable artwork inspired by popular culture, video games, food and Americana. Over the past few years, they've released several sets of officially-licensed pieces based on Rush album art including Moving Pictures, Roll the Bones, Hold Your Fire, A Show of Hands, Signals (this desktop art piece too), Hemispheres, Clockwork Angels and Counterparts, Rush's debut album, Grace Under Pressure, and the Vapor Trails and Snakes & Arrows albums. Their latest offering celebrates the 50th anniversary of Rush's Caress of Steel and Fly by Night albums, both of which were released in 1975 and are celebrating their 50th anniversary this year. There are 3-D Shadowbox pieces for both albums depicting the iconic cover art (Caress of Steel, Fly By Night), along with corresponding desktop pieces for both albums (Caress of Steel, Fly By Night). The collectible shadowbox art pieces measure 14x14" x 2.5" and come ready to hang with an official Rush Certificate of Authenticity (COA), with each piece printed on 1/8" thick optical-grade acrylic with vibrant UV cured inks and set in a high quality finished MDF wood frame. The corresponding desktop pieces are printed on 3/4" thick optical-grade acrylic with vibrant UV cured inks and measure 6" x 6". For more information on Artovision, and to see their complete line of officially-licensed Rush pieces, visit their website at artovision3d.com.
