Carnegie Institute – Historic Pittsburgh

Carnegie Institute circa 1910-1920.

This image will be a print in the coming exhibit of historic images of Pittsburgh. The images are from several sources, this one from the Library of Congress. The photographer is unknown but the print is marked as copyright by the Detroit Publishing Company. The original was an 8 x 10 glass plate negative, dry plate. The files were created by photographing the glass plates with a large format view camera equipped with a scanning back. All prints are contemporary archival pigment prints on 100% cotton rag paper.

Arrangements for the receptions are being handled by Sasha Williams. I am curating, processing the files, and making the exhibition prints. Matting, framing, and the venue for the exhibit is Shaw Galleries    http://www.shawgalleries.com     805 Liberty Avenue, Pittsburgh. The show will be up from Tuesday, April 1, through Friday, April 25, 2014. The opening reception is Friday, April 4, and the closing reception is Friday April 25 during the Pittsburgh Gallery Crawl. I hope to see you there!
