EXPERIMENTS IN COLOUR

Will be on view in the lower gallery of Gallery 286
from March 23rd.

This small exhibition, staged to coincide with the Royal Photographic Society's conference, Holography, Art & Design, is a showcase for a group of British-based holographers whose work has involved experiments with various techniques for the naturalistic representation of colour in holography.

Their backgrounds are various: Science, Technology, Fine Art; and their everyday concerns range from research and experimentation to the commercial application of holography.

The work exhibited here was not for the most part self-consciously produced as 'art' but represents a superb display of technique. "Of several techniques" one should say, as there are 'true-colour', 'pseudocolour' and 'achromatic' holograms in this selection as well as digitally mastered images derived from computer models......>>>>>
