Framing
MacLaren Framing Services
(available to the public)
Everyone can benefit from the expert framing services provided at the MacLaren.
Artists will appreciate the uniform presentation and ease of hanging an exhibit with standardized sizes and consistent matting dimensions. We provide an economical option for display while still maintaining museum quality materials and techniques for works on paper, canvas or mixed media. We consider the present and future needs of the artist, and also handle over-sized art.
Collectors can benefit from our consultation service. We can inspect art that is already framed and advise on its condition to provide optimum protection of the art investment. We can inspect the framing package to see that the art is properly mounted and ensure that no acidic backing or other damaging material is in contact with the art. Damaged frames can be repaired, acidic mats can be replaced and outdated presentations can be renewed. If the art is damaged we can arrange for a conservator to repair it.
For home or office we have an extensive selection of frame moulding and mats to coordinate with your decor. Have your art, photos, diplomas or family heirlooms expertly framed to compliment your surroundings. We take the time to help you choose the best fit for your style and budget.
