Resurrection: A New Look at Old Photographic Processes
A National Juried Exhibition held at 23 Sandy Gallery in Portland, Oregon
Exhibition Catalog
Resurrection explores a renewed interest in antique or alternative photographic processes. Contemporary photographers have developed a new focus on materials and techniques by turning to the history of photography for metaphors, technical information, and visual inspiration. This national juried show showcases a wide array of primitive photographic processes by contemporary artists who are using antiquarian methods in unexpected ways. These artists are working with antique or alternative techniques such as tintypes, daguerreotypes, gum bichromates, emulsion on metals, cyanotypes, collodian prints, toned silver prints, and much more. This show was curated by Laura Moya, who is the director of PhotoLucida.
