Its A Printing Revolution..! Finally..!
I don't know about you, but for years I've wanted to print
color and dreaded the thought that the collector, or the museum or gallery
curator would open the box and find the image had faded. Finally, there
is truly a revolution in the printing of color photographs. Epson
printers and inks are leading the way by opening the "archival
door," allowing artists upresscented control over their work to
create prints with museum quality, clarity and longevity. ...now all
it takes is "purely the image" ... Jean Ferro, Pres. WIPI.
The exhibit, "America in Detail," is by award winning
photographer Stephen Wilkes, sponsored by Epson, printed by R.
Mac Holbert, Nash Editions and curated by Carole Kismaric and
Marvin Heiferman. The production and Installation was handled by Graham
Howe, Curatorial Assistance, Pasadena.
A Panel discussion was held at the Patricia Correia
Gallery, Bergamot Station, Santa Monica, CA on March 2, 2001
Tim B. Wride, Associate Curator, Los Angeles County Museum
of Art (LACMA) tells the audience how LACMA's relationship to collecting
color images has always been a positive one and it is disheartening
to open a box of color images to find that they have faded.
Graham Nash, Nash Editions and co-founder R. Mac Holbert
praise the Epson team
for their support and explain how the new paper and inks have surpassed
the "Iris" print. Nash Editions is the leading digital fine
art printmaking studio having devoted over a decade to mastering the
fine art digital printing process.
