Dan Piech's "Concrete Canvas" series captures the accidental beauty that serendipitously occurs when the concrete beneath New Yorkers' feet is inadvertently graced by spilled paint, fallen debris, expanding cracks, chemical stains, and other fascinating visual elements. An avid runner, Dan has spent over a year traversing every single Manhattan street south of 100th in search of these overlooked "artworks" that have become part of the fabric of the city.
As the founder of the VAST artist collective, Dan uses advanced imaging techniques and equipment to create unprecedented gigapixel-quality photographs that capture every intricate detail of these ephemeral designs. The exceptionally high resolution photographs are then printed in large formats, resulting in impeccably precise physical replicas of the walkways.
Each Concrete Canvas piece embodies the unique soul of New York and challenges us to find beauty in the overlooked, the accidental, the minuscule, and the transient.

Giclee prints are fine art prints made using the highest quality, state-of-the-art inkjet printing processes and materials. Our printer uses pigment inks (not dye-based inks) carefully laid down onto premium paper substrates to ensure the maximum amount of vibrancy, saturation, and color reproduction. Click on the icons below to learn more or click here to explore further.
Your print comes with two certificates of authenticity hand-signed by the artist and the printmaker: one that you will affix to the finished piece and one that remains standalone. Additionally, your print's provenance is tracked and verified using state-of-the-art digital blockchain encryption technology. Learn more.
This frame style mounts one of our giclee prints inside a handcrafted frame made from the highest quality Italian wood. The mount causes the print to appear to float effortlessly within the frame and the resulting gap between the print and the frame border acts as a visual mat, providing depth and elegance to the piece. Note: to fully show off the beauty of the print, there is no glazing on the front of the piece. Click on the icons below to learn more.
