'Untitled' Gellage by Michal Macku, Manipulated Silver Print on Paper

About the Item

Michal Macku (Czech Republic, b. 1963) 'Untitled' Gellage (manipulated silver gelatin print) no. 69, 2008. Signed recto, blind stamped and numbered verso. Full margins. Image: 14.5 x 19.5 in / 37 x 49.5 cm. Mat: 22 x 28 in. Noted Gellage is a series by Czech photograph Michal Macku. Named after an intricate technique he developed. The term “gellage” a portmanteau of “collage” and “gelatin”–refers to a process that involves “the transfer of exposed and fixed photographic emulsion onto paper.” Macku's experimental practice takes liberties in moving the gelatinous emulsion on film negatives around, altering the resulting image that gets printed in the dark room.

    Located in Ft. Lauderdale, FL
    David Hiscock (British b. 1956) 'Photographic Male Nude Composition' Photographic and mixed media print with applied handwork. Mounted on gray cardboard and matted. Signed recto and inscribed verso on cardboard. Image: 10 x 14.50 in / 26 x 37 cm. Sheet: 12 x 16 in / 30 x 40 cm. Mat: 16 x 20 in / 40 x 51 cm. David Hiscock is a British artist born in 1956. He studied at the Royal College of Art. Originally a painter and sculptor, he is one of the forerunners of fine art photography of the 80s. He uses photography as a support with which he plays by retouching, cutting, superimposing, enlarging his photographs and applying his own colors and varnishes to the image. He presents his images-objects in imposing frames, creating impressive pieces by encasing them or applying them in old doors or fragments of pianos. He explores the different metaphorical possibilities of still life, bringing the observer into an imaginary and visionary world. David Hiscock has won several famous photography...
