Workshop on identifying modern photographic process

The Fotorestauratie Atelier VOF in Amsterdam is offering the
following workshop:

"Identification of Modern Photograph Processes"
July 6-9, 2015

Costs: 595,00 euro excluding VAT

The costs include lunch and coffee breaks as well as the course
reader.

Although the main focus of this 4-day course is the identification
of the most common modern photograph processes and finishing
techniques, general preservation policy surrounding modern
photograph collections will also be discussed.  The processes will
be covered in theory, and during practical sessions, participants
will examine the Fotorestauratie Atelier's extensive study
collection under magnification and using different lighting to
distinguish between processes.

Participants will learn about the material and technique surrounding
each of the photograph processes, as well as the visual
characteristics that distinguish one process from another.  The
differences between true silver gelatine prints and other "black and
white" processes will be discussed, and participants will learn to
distinguish between the various color photograph processes such as,
chromogenic, dye transfer, dye diffusion, silver dye bleach
photography and inkjet prints, as well as the finishing techniques
associated with each of these.

Clara von Waldthausen, the lecturer of the course has gained
experience in the identification and preservation of photographs
through many years working in private practice and as lecturer in
Photograph Conservation at the University of Melbourne and the
University of Amsterdam.
