Hi Ankide,
I started a thread about your exhibition on the carbon forum
on yahoo.
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/CarbronTransfer/conversations/messages/4394
Not sure if you are subscribed to the group, but if not I
invite you to do so. There are several members already on
the list from Spain.
Best,
Sandy
As all of you know three-color carbon was widely used
for high quality originals for making four-color
photoengraving plates for advertising until supplanted by
dye transfer or direct photography of Kodachrome. The
process was supposed to be very beautiful but extremely
difficult.
I have been to many of the local photography galleries
but do not remember ever seeing a color carbon print. I
suppose those made for advertising were destroyed but some
must have survived. The process was also used by some
photographers, again, I don't think I've ever seen on
exhibit.
I would love to see Ankide's exhibit but can't.
