RE: Alt collections in Europe
Hi Jalo,
There is (was?) a nice collection of dutch alt prints in my town Leiden, The Netherlands. It is called Het Prentenkabinet, I hve followed a course there on determination of Alt prints in 2002.
The lady in charge is Dr Ingeborg Leijerzapf, she also wrote quite a few books on photography in the Netherlands: http://tinyurl.com/5w3fcb , including a nice monograph on the work of a relative unkown but very productive and good alt. printer: Henri Bressenbrugge.
Her Email adress from 2002: LEYERZAPF@RULLET.LEIDENUNIV.NL.
BUT there was discussion on moving the collection and I do not know what the present status is, searching on internet did not give any clues..
Best,
Cor

Subject: Alt collections in Europe
Dear List,
it may be possible that two of us teachers from our university will get a chance to make a trip to some European cities in the near future with a view to familiarize ourselves with European alt-photo works. We're particularly interested in UK, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Italy...
So I'd like to ask your advice: Can you recommend access (and possibly guidance) to public or private collections of original alt prints, historical or contemporary. What would be the best museums, educational institutes, academies, galleries, etc. in your country, relative to alt?
If you prefer you can reply off-list.
Thanks in advance,
- Jalo
