As the World Cup kicks off, Screen has teamed up with Printvlak in the Netherlands to produce an exhibition of stunning photographs by top photographer Robin Utrecht for the Stars in their Eyes initiative, which uses football to bring about social change in South Africa. Printvlak produced the 80 x 120 cm prints directly on to 4mm rigid plastic sheets on its Truepress Jet2500UV flatbed digital printing system. Screen donated the inks and the transparent Vivak material was supplied by Vink Kunststoffen. The prints were unveiled at a ceremony at the South African embassy in The Hague, then for the duration of the World Cup, they will be on display at Schipol airport in the Netherlands.
