For the Love of Art: Arkady Lvov and Platinum Printing

Описание: Michael Ginsburg, co-founder of Legion Paper, discusses the historic photographic medium of platinum and palladium printing with master printer, Arkady Lvov. After earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Parsons School of Design in 1988 he opened a studio specializing in platinum printing and other rare photographic processes. Among his clients are Annie Leibovitz, Elliot Erwitt, Lillian Bassman, and many others.

A master with the 8×10 inch view camera, Arkady’s personal photographic projects are primarily on the subjects of still life and cityscape. Lvov’s work has been exhibited at many galleries in the US and Europe.
