MIQUEL SALOM. ICTUM OLIM III: AMBROTYPES AND TINTYPES
Julio Valdez • June 1, 2015
07/01/15 - 09/11/15
This was a special exhibition in conjunction with the OAS, on view at AMA F Street Gallery 1889 F Street, NW, Washington DC 20006
The exhibition provides an opportunity to observe the purity of pioneering photography techniques.
The exhibited works result from decades of applied photographic research and visits to the United States to observe, first-hand, original works by photography pioneers. Selected portraits and landscapes use wet collodion, an early form of photographic emulsion. A glass plate or sensitized metal is exposed directly to sunlight with a chemical solution that enables rapid production of unrepeatable images, a procedure invented by Frederick Scott Archer in 1856 with the tintype patent.
Clean and spacious private room with a private bathroom is currently available for short-term rental on a weekly or monthly basis. Situated within a larger floor dedicated to artist studios in the renowned East Harlem neighborhood, this space is ideal for individuals in the art industry seeking temporary accommodation in the city. Specifically designed to cater to artists and writers requiring short stays, this room is not intended for long-term leasing purposes. While the bedroom is still in the process of being set up, the remainder of the floor and kitchen are fully prepared for use. The space will be ready for occupancy starting February 1st, offered at a rate of $495 per week.
