Hello,
plan to come to NYC soon and will take the opportunity to visit some galleries for showing my work.
I work in color, my c-prints usually have a size of 24x35 (from 6x9cm) or 40x50 (from 4x5). Looking at 35mm slide duplicates or 8x10 prints makes it hard to imagine the impact of the original prints. Maybe I am too critical but to me these are only mediocre copies of the original.
How do you seasoned colleagues get around this problem? Do you lug your original prints around Chelsea or are galleries used to look at smaller prints and are able to imagine how the originals would look like?
Thank you very much Marek
