Art Intersection hosted a dry plate negative demonstration with Lisa Zirbel’s photography class. The dry plates came from Zebra in Slovenia. Bob Rice was in charge of the developing of the plates after each student exposed the negatives taking portraits using Calumet 4×5 cameras.
Gelatin silver contact sheets were made from each negative, with the take away for each students being a dry plate negative and a contact print. Fun afternoon!
In the last month, we’ve hosted three engaging sessions of our “Capturing the Unexpected” street photography workshop, guided by the talented Neil A. Miller. Students courageously ventured beyond their comfort zones to capture life’s unscripted moments. Between sessions, they honed their observational skills in public spaces and meticulously curated their images to present a select few to Neil and their fellow photographers during the final session.
Last Saturday morning we held another Portfolio Sharing Event at the Art Intersection galleries! During this mid-day event members receive feedback from the public and answer questions about their artwork and upcoming projects.
