Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this exposure class:

In 1850, Frenchman Louis-Desiré Blanquart-Evrard invented the albumen print. This process involves coating a sheet of paper in a solution of egg and salt. Next, silver nitrate is applied to the paper thereby making the material light sensitive. The sheet of paper is then exposed to UV light where the image prints out. Once exposed, the print is then processed and toned to the artist's liking with gold and/or platinum. It is then fixed, rinsed and dried allowing the artist to apply a finishing wax. The wide variety of tones and surface types aided by the use of egg whites is a distinguishing earmark of an albumen print.

Morgan Post's 8 Weeks of Albumen is a two-month deep dive into this beautiful, uniquely versatile and nuanced process. The instructor will go over many different approaches to the albumen process including the use of various salts and starches, obtaining different surface types like glossy and matte, using various toners, and finishing options. This opportunity will give the students the ability to work on a specific focus either project and/or process based. This course is well suited for anyone from beginner to advanced.
