Arturo Herrera

Title

Front

Description

Cyanotype

Cyanotype, a photographic printmaking process first invented in 1841 and commonly used for architectural blueprint drawings, appealed to Herrera for this experimental print, Front. He snapped 35mm photos of some of his existing works, and manipulated the film by pouring coffee and other liquids on it and placing it in the freezer; the results are enigmatic, accidental versions of his work in soulful deep blue tones.
