Mark Abrahamson is an American Postwar & Contemporary artist who was born in 1944. Mark completed a BA at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington and a DDS at University of Washington, Seattle. Abrahamson creates aerial photographs that depict abstract patterns found in the landscape. He notes that his work focuses on "the United States’ urban and rural environments, examining how man has altered the landscape, affected our watersheds and contributed to climate change." An environmental advocate, his project "Global Warming: An American Perspective" features lectures and photographs based on 20 years of experience documenting changes in the landscape. Part of artist Mark Abrahamson's portfolio of photographs taken in Tibet in the 1980's. This photograph highlights the rich colors Mark Abramson encountered there, and he notes: "Tibetan colors are bold and lavishly used in clothing, jewelry, for decorative purposes in public and private places, and in the many visual manifestations of their religion." This has been described as a silver bleach print. It is marked cibachrome verso. Cibachrome prints are created from color transparencies – typically slides – by a system completely different from traditional color prints to maximize sharpness, color intensity, clean whites and critical accuracy to the original slide. Ilfochrome, (formerly known as Cibachrome) is a dye destruction positive-to-positive photographic process used for the reproduction of slides on photographic paper. The prints are made on a dimensionally stable triacetate polyester base, essentially a plastic base opposed to traditional paper base. Since it uses azo dyes on a polyester base, the print will not fade, discolor, or deteriorate for a long time. Characteristics of Ilfochrome prints are image clarity, color purity, more environmentally safe, as well as being an archival process able to produce critical accuracy to the original slide.
Mark Abrahamson received 2006 GAP Award funding to complete and promote work on the “Global Warming” portion of his series Watershed Investigations. Using aerial photography, Mark describes changes in the earth’s topography caused by human interference. “Global Warming” will concentrate on depicting geographical changes in the atmosphere caused by the burning of fossil fuels. Portions of the series to be completed include photographs of melting glaciers in the North Cascades. The new work will travel nationally over the coming year.
Mark also received GAP Awards in 1991, 1995, and 2001, and a 2002 Fellowship.
