Three exhibitions will accompany the workshop:
This will be part of a series of exhibitions, about the physiology of vision, and photographic techniques. The other exhibitions will show techniques of recording movement, and three-dimensional photography.
The exhibition, to be held in the National Technical Museum in Prague, will accompany the workshop. However it will also be available to the wider public, and will be part of the 100th Anniversary celebrations of the museum.
A number of three-dimensional objects will be on display, partly from a unique collection documenting Czech national contribution to three-color photography, and partly the photographic equipment from applied three-color photography, where the basic physical and physiological effects can be demonstrated. Color photographs in the Exhibition will be digital reconstructions from original three-color negatives, taken from the collection of the Seidel studio in Český Krumlov, and from the collections of the US Library of Congress.
This exhibition, in the National Museum of Photography in Jindřichův Hradec, will focus more on the color photographs themselves, rather than the technology of their creation. The intention is to present work of various photographers who were using the technique of three-color photography. Exhibition will introduce works of A. Miethe, S. M. Prokudin-Gorsky, H. Renbjör, C. Moffat, J. Seidel and more.
Opening: Saturday, November 1st, in Jindřichův Hradec.
