Hi,
I'm working towards a small exhibition later this year. I'm shooting
the photos on Scala, which I plan to have scanned and printed
digitally. I've been advised to have Iris prints made on watercolour
paper. At an exhibition this weekend I noted that Catherine Opie's
prints are made this way, so I paid particular attention to them
technically, and I'm quite impressed. I'm pretty sure Anthony Suau's
prints were done this way for his 'Beyond the Fall' exhibition, too.
(http://www.informinc.co.uk/LM/LM128/LM128_CW_Walter.html) When I saw
this exhibition I was impressed with his prints, and didn't know until
some time afterwards that they were digital.
The same person who suggested I use this medium has also recommended
somebody to do the prints. My questions are: does anybody here have
any personal experience of Iris prints on watercolour paper? If so,
what advice can you give me about getting it done? What questions should
I ask the printer? What information should I offer? How should I evaluate
his work? How should I make sure he does the best possible job for me?
TIA,
Bob
