"Portraits, contours and detours"
Workshop in photographic laboratory: photogram
Keep track, experiment the laboratory in red light, attend the appearance of images in the developer, play with light, make a portrait in black and white, profile or imaginary, without camera, this is the workshop to which the museum invites you, using the photogram technique. Developed at the beginning of the 19th century by one of the inventors of photography, Henry Fox Talbot, the process is still current and is part of the «palette» of artists like Nancy Wilson-Pajic or Pierre Savatier whose works are preserved in the museum.
