Traditional large-format canvases (like a 60" x 60") require oversized freight crating, which can cost upwards of $700 for domestic transit. Because our patented system collapses into a high-durability 4-inch diameter tube, it qualifies for standard ground shipping, typically costing around $40.

Absolutely. The system is engineered with precision-milled 1/2" x 2" wood rails and high-strength hinged cross-braces. Once the modular end-bars are locked into place via our high-cycle Velcro hinges, the frame achieves a drum-tight, archival-grade surface integrity identical to heavy-duty gallery stretchers.

No. The Genie Canvas is designed for tool-less deployment. The perimeter rails are pre-fastened to the canvas, and the central hinged brace snap-locks into position. Most artists can fully assemble a 60x60 masterwork in under 5 minutes without any assistance.

We use only professional-grade 10oz cotton duck. Every canvas arrives triple-primed with archival gesso, providing a superior tooth and absorption profile that is ready for immediate use with oils, acrylics, or mixed media.

Yes. The system is designed to be reversible. You can assemble it to paint, disassemble it for inexpensive transport to a gallery or client, and re-assemble it at the final destination. This makes Genie Canvas the ideal solution for international exhibitions and artists with limited studio storage.
