In this four-day intensive workshop, participants will develop identification skills and knowledge about fine art and historic photographic processes, from the daguerreotype to digital prints. This workshop is intended for curators, collectors, archivists, collection managers, and anyone who studies or appreciates photographic prints. Due to the hands-on nature of this workshop, the number of participants will be limited to 15.
Using handheld 60x microscopes and a large set of photographic and photomechanical samples, the class will learn how a variety of processes were created, why they look the way they do, and how they deteriorate. Group ID sessions, using a digital microscope and screen projection, will allow participants to practice their identification skills in a guided setting. Preservation topics include enclosures, handling guidelines, environmental monitoring, the effects of temperature and relative humidity on collections, and the importance of cold storage for certain photographic materials.
Over 30 different processes will be studied in great detail, from how daguerreotypes are made and how they are best preserved, to how long-lasting inkjet prints are created, and how to preserve and store color photographic materials and cellulose nitrate and cellulose acetate-based film.
Registration includes:
– Four-day workshop
– 240-page color notebook with lecture handouts
– Quick ID Sheets for each process
– 60x LED handheld microscope
– Optional: Basic Photographic Sample Set*
*The Basic Photographic Sample Set, consisting of 18 identified photographic and photomechanical processes, is available with registration for an additional USD75.
